Sinus Grafting for Implant Reconstruction
23 CE Hrs
Learn Practice-changing Protocols, Concepts, Materials, Tips and More!
Lateral Wall Approach | Crestal Approach | Sinus Membrane Perforation Repair | Prevent & Manage Complications | CBCT Evaluation | Delayed & Simultaneous Implant Placement | Bioactive Modifiers
Learn and perform the best practices for the best predictable outcomes and never abort a sinus case again due to a perforated sinus membrane, with Dr. Michael A. Pikos’ proven technique for immediate sinus membrane repair.
Take home the best of “what works, what doesn’t and why” derived from Dr. Pikos’ more than 1600 sinus grafts performed over 34+ years. By taking this course you will acquire enduring skills to confidently provide perhaps the most frequently required treatment for implant site development.
Includes Hands-on Workshop & Live Surgery
In this course, you will:
Understand the 7 key principles for predictable sinus bone grafting.
- Describe the science and art of sinus bone grafting via unique interactive lecture discussion, HD video clips, hands on workshops and live surgical demonstration.
- Learn from Dr. Pikos’ 34 years of experience with sinus bone grafting (more than 1600 sinus grafts performed).
- Experience a warm, friendly and unique environment for increasing diagnostic and surgical skill sets.
- Learn not just the “how to”, but the “why” and “why not”.
