A half-day introductory workshop focusing on the practical application of the VetKISS Micro Plating System. Using a case-based approach, implants and instruments compatible with the 1.0 mm, 1.4 mm and 1.6 mm sets will be reviewed to understand system nuances and clinical applications. Hands-on sessions will allow participants to reinforce techniques presented in lectures through exercises using bone models and exercises in a dry lab setting.

This workshop is designed for surgeons experienced with locking plate technology. Lectures and labs will focus specifically on the unique attributes of the VetKISS Micro Plating System.
