Your Key Learnings

After the course, you will master the latest diagnostic and therapeutic tools that are crucial for tackling even the most challenging cases.The maxillary sinus floor elevation procedure is a surgical technique aimed at restoring bone volume in the posterior maxilla to allow for the restoration of masticatory and aesthetic function through the insertion of dental implants. This procedure is commonly performed when the height of the alveolar ridge is insufficient due to sinus pneumatization following tooth loss. During the theoretical part, the scientific and diagnostic bases underlying this technique, surgical techniques, and potential complications associated with maxillary sinus elevation will be explored. Emphasis will be placed on the importance of proper patient selection, preoperative evaluation, and surgical planning to ensure predictable outcomes. 

Additionally, innovations in materials and technologies, such as piezosurgery and membranes, will be discussed to improve the success and safety of the procedure. Understanding the principles and nuances of this technique is essential for oral and maxillofacial surgeons to provide optimal care to patients and achieve favorable long-term results.Incision, elevation, bone access window, membrane elevation, grafting, management of the bone access window, suturing.
 
During the practical part, the participant will have the opportunity to perform a maxillary sinus floor elevation procedure on a cadaver. The practical part will not only allow for the acquisition of practical knowledge regarding the instruments and techniques to be used but will also allow for interaction with qualified tutors who will assist the participant during the procedure. Each participant will be guided in identifying anatomical landmarks during incision and soft tissue elevation. They will then be assisted in performing the bone access window and all phases of maxillary sinus membrane elevation, grafting, and final soft tissue management. The aim of the practical part is for each participant to acquire the necessary skills to perform a maxillary sinus floor elevation procedure safely and reproducibly with complete autonomy.

Bone Reconstruction of Atrophic Alveolar Ridge with Bone Graft from the Ascending Branch of the Mandible - Theoretical Part

Bone reconstruction of the alveolar ridge is a surgical procedure that corrects bone atrophy of the edentulous maxillary ridge. The technique with bone graft from the ascending branch of the mandible is currently one of the safest methods to obtain adequate bone volumes for proper implant placement. During the theoretical part, preoperative and surgical planning necessary to ensure predictable results will be described. Additionally, innovations in materials and technologies, such as piezosurgery and osteosynthesis means, will be discussed to improve the success and safety of the procedure.
 
Topics covered:
  • Anatomy of the Mandible
  • Indications for the use of bone graft from the ascending branch of the mandible
  • Surgical technique of bone harvesting
  • Technique for preparing the recipient site: soft tissue management, graft modeling and fixation, sutures
  • Postoperative protocols
  • Management of complications
