Content: In the maxillary incisor region, a sinus floor augmentation to enlarge the vertical bone supply may be indicated for a vertically reduced local bone height of less than 5 to 7 mm before procedures to rehabilitate masticatory function with an implant-bearing tooth replacement. For a single-sided deposit osteoplasty, the quantity of autogenous bone from the chin region is usually sufficient. The operative procedure of a single-sided lateral sinus floor augmentation is demonstrated with particulate spongious bone and alternatively with an autogenous block graft. The video also shows the operative method for a crestal sinus floor augmentation with the aid of the endoscopically controlled condensation technique. The advantages and disadvantages of the individual procedures are highlighted. In addition, the technique for harvesting chin bone transplants in different case examples is shown. Outline: - Operative technique for lateral sinus floor augmentation with autogenous particulate spongious bone - Operative technique for lateral sinus floor augmentation with autogenous block grafts - Crestal, endoscopically controlled sinus floor augmentation with condensation technique - Techniques for harvesting chin bone grafts - Range of indication for sinus floor augmentation - Lateral sinus floor augmentation - Operative technique of crestal, endoscopically controlled sinus floor augmentation - Operative technique of autogenous chin bone removal

Overview: Part 1 - Incision and mobilization of the mucoperiosteal flap - Cleaning the bony defect - Screw insertion for support, membrane application and fixation - Suture closure Part 2 - Opening of the mucosa above the region of augmented bone - Preparation of tunnel and bone bed for an open screw-type endosteal implant (Straumann® implant) - Use of single button sutures for tension-free wound closure Contents: This female patient presented with bone loss due to a radicular cyst at tooth 27 and peri-implantitis at tooth 26. Four months after extraction of the respective tooth and implant, guided bone regeneration (GBR) was carried out using supporting screws and an e-PTFE membrane for augmentation of the posterior tooth region of the maxilla. Four months after GBR the insertion of an implant took place.

Various factors may cause major bone loss resulting in functional and esthetic problems. In this module, Prof. Hendrik Terheyden reviews the mechanisms and consequences of bone resorption and explains the treatment options for specific situations in partially edentulous and edentulous patients.

In this module Prof. Christer Dahlin explains the principles of minor bone regeneration procedures. The focus is on the biologic principles of GBR, the importance and the choice of membranes, the characteristics of different bone substitute materials and the potential future developments.

When a tooth is considered to be irrational to treat and needs to be extracted every dentist needs to take decisions on whether to let the socket heal spontaneously with a blood clot or whether to perform alveolar ridge preservation procedures. In this module you are going to learn all the important decision-making factors and the clinical handling after tooth extraction to chose either between spontaneous healing after tooth extraction or immediate implant placement or alveolar ridge preservation procedures.
