This presentation will provide an evidence-based approach to osteotomy preparation while it enhances implant stability and bone density without compromising healing. This lecture will present the biomechanical, histological healing timeline, and clinical data of supporting novel osteotomy preparation. It will discuss bone plasticity and its clinical effect, as well as the clinical versatility of this novel technique including sinus autografting, ridge expansion, and guided expansion ridge augmentation. Several clinical protocols will be outlined.
Learning Objectives: Upon completion of this course, participants should be able to:
1. Define the scientific principle of a novel approach to osteotomy preparation
2. Understand bone plasticity biomechanics and its clinical advantages
3. Discuss the effects of this novel technique on total implant stability, healing, and what it means biomechanically and histologically (BIC, bone volume)
4. Comprehend how bone can be enhanced with adequate instrumentation
5. Summarize the crestal hydrodynamic sinus lift in combination with auto-grafting
6. Apply how this novel approach can change the minimum amount of bone needed to predictably place an implant utilizing a unique protocol
7. Illustrate how to optimize one’s implant practice and create more with less
