Sinus Lift
A key to implant success is the quantity and quality of the bone where the implant is to be placed. The posterior area of the upper jaw has traditionally been one of the most difficult areas to successfully place dental implants, mainly because of the pneumatization of the maxillary sinus in edentulous areas, resulting in insufficient bone quantity and quality and the proximity to the maxillary sinus.
This course will provide extensive theoretical concepts and hands-on exercises on simulated anatomical models and animal models to prepare the participant with the surgical skills necessary to perform Sinus Lift surgery. Students will also have the opportunity to watch live surgeries.
