Course Description

This is a supplementary course which will aid participants in the detailed planning, assessment and execution of the sinus bone graft with particular emphasis on the lateral window technique.

This is an advanced course ideal for dental practitioners who have existing postgraduate knowledge in dental implantology looking to expand on their knowledge and practical skills

The Sinus Bone Graft Master course is an in-depth, hands-on, 2-day course

What is covered

  • Applied anatomy of the maxillary antra
  • Histology and histopathology relating to the maxillary antra
  • Overview of biomaterials to use in grafting
  • Soft tissue handling
  • Lateral window access to the antrum
  • Crestal approach to the antrum
  • Dealing with intra-operative and post- operative complications of antral surgery
  • Instrumentation: suggested hand instruments, use of piezon, use of surgical handpieces and the equipment necessary.
  • Hands-on practice lateral approach on a deer head (more predictable than using a cadaver).
  • Planning the graft with the restoration in mind. Compensating for the limitations posed by grafted sites

Course Description

UCLan’s MSc in clinical implantology in association with VSSAcademy™ is designed to give GDPs a solid academic and practical foundation in implants.

Catering to the needs of busy practitioners through mixed online and practical learning, the MSc gives delegates the scientific background and confidence required to place and restore implants with confidence.

Patients are provided for clinical treatment, enabling every delegate to personally place an average of 4-10 implants under clinical supervision in approximately 3-4 patients over the 15 clinical days.

The course covers full CBCT training, fresh cadaver clinical training, and a digital workflow and laboratory training day, with one-to-one training and support provided throughout.

Postgraduate students have full access to UCLan’s extensive online library, so they can review all the articles they require for their studies.

Once initial training is completed, delegates have access to continuous post-learning support and mentoring to ensure the safe and effective transfer of knowledge and skills into practice. Professional relationships with mentors are maintained beyond the initial course to provide guidance and advice where necessary as delegates begin planning and placing dental implants on their own.

Syllabus Highlights

  • Treatment planning and selection
  • Basic sciences for implant dentistry
  • Implant design and biomechanics
  • Surgical skills
  • Occlusion
  • Restoring implants
  • Bone defects
  • Complications and their management
