COURSE OBJECTIVES
Beginning, intermediate, and experienced implant practitioners often recognize that insufficient bone height exists to place even short implants. Defaulting to traditional modalities of care such as distal extension partials or long span bridges may not give our patients the best function and health. There are several methods to manage bone height from using ultra-short implants to restoring lost bone volume by crestal (internal) or lateral (external) sinus augmentation methods. With good understanding of sinus anatomy and explanation of clear procedure steps, even beginner dentists can successfully create bone. Let me share my 20 years of sinus experience so you can help your patients feel complete and comfortable. The following subjects will be covered:
- Understanding of sinus anatomy-gross and microscopic
- Identifying medically good candidates
- Traditional methods of sinus management and how to perform
- Modern methods of sinus management and how to perform
- Understanding lateral wall sinus augmentation and when it is appropriate
- Troubleshooting complications especially sinus membrane perforation
