Reply to Creation of lateral window for sinus augmentation
Lateral window sinus lifts are indicated when there’s 3 mm or less of residual bone height. In this case, you may still be able to go intracrestal for these lifts.
However, yes, if you do have a bony window you can leave it attached to the membrane when you elevate. It’s basically added bone graft!
I haven’t used those kits so I couldn’t tell…

Creation of lateral window for sinus augmentation
Good day everyone, I have just started to perform sinus augmentation and still new in this journey. Currently, I am using the conventional way with slow handpiece and round carbide bur (for dentoalveolar impactedd tooth removal) to cut and create the window. I am also aware of the LAS kit from osstem and DASK kit from dentium. May I know does…

Controlling Bleeding with Transexamic Acid
I have a case share. I have a patient who presented with Pericoronitis tooth number #1 and other impacted wisdom teeth. Medical history significant for von Willebrand‘s disease. I had a difficult time getting a medical status update from her PCP. Upon questioning the patient, it looks like a bleeding issues haven’t been too severe for her.…

In this case, it looks like a minimal sinus augmentation is needed. There is a technique you can consider for this clinical scenario called a ‘sinus implosion’. For this technique, you drill your osteotomy just shy of the sinus floor cortex and then you place your implant fracturing the sinus floor into the sinus. So it often looks like drill 6…

Good day everyone, I have a case which may involve challenging sinus lifting at the area with sinus septum. LIterature has shown that the risk of perforating sinus lining is low as long as the drilling does not exceed 2mm over the sinus floor or wall.
In this case, should I avoid sinus lifting and engage the implant fixture right at the…

Patient had biomet 3I implant placed elsewhere. Had a cement retained crown #10. Its now completely covered by soft tissue. Any tips for removal of the screw?

I’ve seen Dr Huss vibrate out stuck screws with a cavitron

Yep, what Nathaniel sad can definitely help. Also Salvin makes a decent screw removal kit that has a bunch of goodies that can help. It’s always a pain in the butt but typically the screw comes out. Good luck!

First freehand implant placed a couple of weeks ago. #4. Felt my initial angulation was coming too far mesially and tried to course correct best I could. Happy with the final placement. A little tricky with the distal sloping of the ridge from #5 down to implant #3. Did a papilla sparing incision and tucked the tissue to the buccal with…

nicely done

First three career implants placed last month! Fully guided.
Some thoughts and questions:
The tissue punch for #29 probably left a less than ideal amount of buccal keratinized gingiva. One month later, patient has some irritation of the gingiva buccal to the healing abutment. In retrospect, I would have liked to flap rather than punch and try…

HI Guys
i am a bit confused on PRF & CGF (sticky bone),mostly the RPM & time to prepare for sticky bone.
I understand A-PRF (PRF membrane) is 1300 rpm at 8 minutes (red tube), is the CGF (sicky bone0 is i-PRF which is red tube at 7oo RPM for 3 minutes then mixed with allograft? I understand each centrifuge has its own settings!
Can someone…

Hey! There’s a lot of info out there so it can get a bit confusing with all the different protocols. each centrifuge does have its own settings, which can make things tricky.
For A-PRF (membrane), I use 1300 rpm for 8 minutes with a red tube. For CGF (sticky bone), you’re on the right track! Usually, i-PRF is prepared at 700 rpm for 3… Read more
