Course Description
This course is designed for specialist and general practitioners who are interested in enhancing their sinus lift techniques for dental implant cases. Depending on tooth position, maxillary extractions can create bone recession and allow the sinus cavity to drop into the void. By using bone augmentation in the sinus floor, the sinus membrane can be raised to its proper position and enable implant placement without disrupting the sinus cavity. The method of maxillary sinus augmentation is, dependent on patient anatomy, residual bone height, and clinical preference. This course will address both the lateral window (direct) approach and vertical (indirect) approaches. The viewer will learn about the anatomical and radiographic structure of the sinus, interpretation of follow up imaging of maxillary sinus grafts, and sinus graft and complications. Live surgical procedure videos will demonstrate how to easily incorporate these techniques into your next implant procedures.
Who this course is for
Beginner, intermediate, and advanced restorative doctors and surgical specialists.
