  • When doing a lateral sinus lift like you were talking about yesterday, have you encountered an intrabony artery? And if you have, what is your preferred way of managing bleeding complications? Thank you!

    • Yes, very often 50% of greater you will have a PSAA (posterior superior alveolar artery) within the bony buccal wall as the window is created. Sometimes you can work around it and/or carefully through it with the help of a piezo. If cut you can apply pressure to the hard bony wall to stop bleeding or if large enough plug it up with a Perio…

    • When placing an immediate implant , in study club today and the dental lit states it is best to place bonegraft with a provisional. My question is does it make a difference in placing the implant first and than the bone graft? I find it easier to leave my last implant drill, place the allograft and than seat the implant. Does the dental…

      • Either before or after is fine, most of it just comes down to preference. As long as the gap is grafted, that is what is the most Important. If you do place the bone after often times I place a little bit at a time and then I use something like a Perio probe to gently push the bone graft material as apical as possible so I get a good…

        • I really like to do it this way also, I leave my last drill in the prep and pack bone around it. Then the implant compresses everything together. Although its tricky when bone ends up accidentally falling into the prep!

          I did the uncovery on this case yesterday. My question is about approximating the flap margins with healing abutments involved. He had really tall and thick tissue, most of these are 7mm tall healing abutments and some barely poke through.

          Do you recommend leaving the gap to fill in, try to thin/undermine the tissue, or even do a…

          • Is the pt getting a hybrid? I would just make sure you can get parts that tall. If not then u may need to go back and thin the tissue. Keep us updated.

            • Yes U/L FP3s. He had been without teeth for years and smokes so I just buried everything and told it’ll be another 6 months before teeth he was cool with that.

              I’m pretty sure they have MUAs this tall although I’ve never used them.

              I guess another question is would anyone have impressed at this uncovery appointment? Or wait for healing then…

            Hey, guys! Dragos from Romania here! I’ve made a bit of courage to start posting and asking about some of my cases (since i started doing them more frequently). Please don’t judge mistakes since I don’ t pretend to be a guru of surgery of some sort. Actually I still consider myself a begginer in that matter. Anyway, here’s a case I did this…

            • Thank you for your question! This is a JUDGEMENT FREE ZONE 🙂

              I have a follow up question: So she experienced her sinus symptoms 5 days after the procedure?

              Hey everyone,

              Did one immediate in November and want to understand its prognosis.

              Leave it for some more time or take it out.

              Kindly suggest.

              • Thanks for the question 🙂 What are your concerns about it? Also, does the patient have any risk factors as far as implants are concerned?

                • Well no risk factors, but I see some gap mesial to the implant.

                  So that’s the concern.

                • Hello everyone! I hope everyone’s having a great week. Here’s an update to the previous case that was shared and has been discussed.

                  Look how much thick keratinized tissue there is now once the patient is fully healed five months postoperatively. We also had good bone regeneration around and over the implants and placed wide healing abutments…
