INTIMIDATED BY SINUS LIFTING? 
NOT ANYMORE!

Attempting to place implants in patients with a pneumatized maxillary sinus can create a challenging situation for many dental implant practitioners. This presentation will focus on utilizing an innovative technique for indirect sinus lifting. Evaluation and management of the deficient posterior maxillary region is handled via CBCT diagnostics and the use of the CAS-kit Approach Sinus Kit from Hiossen. 

Flap reflection, drilling sequence, hydraulic lifting of the Schneiderian Membrane, utilization of PRF and Allograft bone, and finally immediate implant placement is highlighted in a conservative crestal approach, without the need for opening the traditional lateral window. Attendees will understand how utilizing this technique can safely achieve anywhere from 6-8mm of vertical height in what is one of the most common, yet challenging regions to work in for implant dentistry.
