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

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

Delivered by the University of Bristol in collaboration with The Dental Implant Clinic in Bath, the MSc in dental implantology features theoretical and practical teaching from an internationally-recognised teaching faculty.
The three-year part-time programme comprises hands-on experience in a dental practice from day one, allowing delegates to develop skills and apply them in a real-world setting to patients selected by the university.
The comprehensive modular course is structured in three sections – certificate, diploma, and MSc supported by outstanding resources and cutting-edge facilities.
Training is designed to produce caring, knowledgeable and skilful practitioners capable of confidently providing the surgical and restorative aspects of simple implant treatment.
This course is designed for those who seek a thorough grounding in the skills required to deliver predictable implants. Delegates learn to critically appraise evidence, which is vital when selecting which surgical and restorative treatments to offer.

What Attendees Say
My learning at VSSAcademy™ has completely met my expectations…The clinical guidance while placing implants was excellent. The Clinics were well organised with quality equipment. VSSAcademy™ also provides ongoing online support after the MSc is finished, which is useful for clinicians like me who started their journey of implants.
Dr Radhika Baireddy
ArrayIf someone is thinking of doing this, go ahead. It’s a relaxed, informal way of learning with a lot of support and people who want you to do well. The mentors are great, very experienced, knowledgeable and down to earth.
Dr Grainne McCloskey
ArrayThe implant study days have been excellent and I’ve come across a great network of lecturers who are very approachable for any support I need through the course.
Sinitta Madhani
ArrayThe hands-on nature of the VSS Academy course has been exceptional. I am gaining both theoretical knowledge and clinical skills to confidently begin my implant career. The excellent mentoring and practical skills have allowed me to safely ease into implantology.
