Further details about this event

Sinus grafting is probably one of the most common and predictable grafting procedures in implant dentistry. This course has been designed to allow delegates to learn first-hand how to correctly assess patients prior to sinus grafting and learn step-by-step surgical protocols for both lateral and crestal approaches.

Delegates will also learn which graft materials work best in which scenarios and how to safely harvest autogenous bone to improve treatment outcomes, followed by the opportunity to gain hands-on experience treating cadavers.
