COURSE OBJECTIVES and GOALS:
This course is intended for the clinician who wishes to take their surgical skill set to the next level to address vertically decent maxillary sites. Specifically, this course consists of lecture and participation activities to expand the doctors knowledge of vertical crestal sinus augmentation.
Emphasis will be on recognizing the clinical indications, understanding the biological principles of these surgeries, exploring the latest techniques and materials available.
By the end of this course, doctors will be able to:
- Understand the sinus classification systems available to be able to correctly identify and treatment plan the surgical case
- Understand sinus augmentation and wound healing to determine when to restore to avoid failures
- Review and understand the foundational anatomy of the soon to be augmented sinus and understand specific pathological findings
- Understand indications and contraindications with local and systemic factors for sinus augmentation
- Learn clinical limiting factors when to perform lateral wall versus trans crestal approach sinus lift techniques
- Understand the predictability, portability, and standard of care discussion for doctors to utilize 3D cone beam CBCT for predictable sinus augmentation
- Learn step by step predictable and safe methods to hydrostatically tent the vertically decent ridge for immediate implant placement
- Understand the specific bone graft materials available for sinus augmentation.
- Be able to clinically determine and implement when to use autogenous, allograft, xenograft, and alloplastic materials to accomplish predictable sinus augmentation
- Understand specific clinical protocols to perform immediate implant placement post sinus augmentation for single and multiple edentulous sites
- Understand in-depth pharmacology protocols for pre and post surgical management for sinus augmentation
Hands-on Activities:
Learn to perform crestal approach sinus lifts on typodont models with immediate implant placemetnt
