This 6-part self-instructional video series provides a comprehensive overview of maxillary sinus augmentation techniques for dental professionals. The course includes a thorough review of maxillary sinus anatomy, surgical indications, and patient selection criteria, along with treatment
planning strategies for both internal (osteotome) and external (lateral window) sinus lift procedures. Each module is designed to reinforce evidence-based protocols while enhancing the clinician’s ability to perform these procedures safely and effectively. High-resolution clinical video demonstrations are incorporated throughout the series to illustrate real-time techniques and approaches. Participants will also learn to recognize and manage potential complications, including Schneiderian membrane perforation and intra-operative bleeding. This educational activity is appropriate for general dentists, periodontists, oral and maxillofacial surgeons, dental students, residents, and other dental professionals involved in implant therapy or advanced surgical care. This continuing education activity has been planned and implemented in accordance with the
standards of the ADA Continuing Education Recognition Program (ADA CERP). Participants who complete the course and assessment will receive 2 hours of continuing education credit.
