Graftless Lateral Sinus Floor Elevation

Prof. Stefan Lundgren and Dr. Giampiero Ciabattoni welcome you to this practical video course on the Graftless Lateral Sinus Floor Elevation (LSFE): a one-stage, minimally-invasive and predictable sinus augmentation technique that can revolutionize your daily practice.

You will discover an innovative technique that allows sinus elevation working just on the native bone - the prerequisite being the regeneration of the autologous bone - without any sort of biomaterial or graft material. Scientific literature shows that implant rejection rates are lower with this technique that when using biomaterials or graft materials, and there is no report of sinus infection. Therefore, the LSFE approach is the method of choice in the vast majority of sinus augmentation procedures.
This course aims to point out the principles, surgical protocols and latest innovations in sinus augmentation. You will acquire practical skills and deepen your knowledge of the theoretical background and the digital planning of the LSFE approach, thus increasing the predictability and the safety of the surgery and minimizing the cost for your patients.

The full course program
Lecture 1:
Background and philosophy behind the surgical treatment and long term follow up
Here you can watch a five-minute fragment of the lesson.

In this first video lecture, Prof. Lundgren presents Graftless Sinus Floor Elevation to participants by showing them the studies and the experiments of recent years that have led to the development of this innovative technique. Then is treated the step-by-step procedure in order to obtain a graftless sinus elevation with the help of several short surgical videos.
Lecture 2:
Graftless Lateral Sinus Floor Elevation: a focus on the surgical technique
Here you can watch a five-minute fragment of the lesson.

In this second lecture of the course, Prof. Lundgren illustrates this innovative surgical technique in a step-by-step way, using video sequences with original audios and comments.
Lecture 3:
What can go wrong and what to do if this happens?
Here you can watch a five-minute fragment of the lesson.

Prof. Lundgren presents different possible complications that may happen while performing a Graftless sinus floor elevation, such as uncontrolled bleeding, too fragile sinus membranes or a not integrated implant during the healing.
Several short surgical videos are displayed in order to help principants fixing ideas.
Lecture 4:
ReLIVE Surgery - Virtually planned bilateral graftless LSFE and placement of 3 + 3 implants assisted by a pilot drill guide
Here you can watch a five-minute fragment of the lesson.

In this first 4K high-quality ReLIVE Surgery, a left and right lateral sinus elevation without grafting materials with simultaneously replacement of six implants is presented to participants. From the digital treatment planning to the final suture, each phase is discussed in detail.
Lecture 5:
ReLIVE Surgery - Virtually planned unilateral graftless LSFE and 3 implants placed. Arterial bleeding during surgery and how this was managed
Here you can watch a five-minute fragment of the lesson.

In this 4th ReLIVE Surgery session, Prof. Lundgren and Dr. Ciabattoni firstly discuss about the different flap philosophy when working in the posterior area. Then, a complication occurs during the surgical treatment and they explain how to safely manage an anterior bleeding.
Lecture 6:
ReLIVE Surgery - Virtually planned right side graftless LSFE in the premolar and molar area
Here you can watch a five-minute fragment of the lesson.

Participants will see Prof. Lundgren tackle a three adjacent implant placement at the level of 1.4, 1.5 and 1.6 elements. The surgery is tricky because of the severe bone defect that affects the whole area but he succeeds thanks to Graftless Sinus Floor Elevation technique.
Lecture 7:
ReLIVE Surgery - Virtually planned left side graftless LSFE and placement of 2 implants in the molar area
Here you can watch a five-minute fragment of the lesson.

In this last ReLIVE surgery, Prof. Lundgren shows to participants how to place two implants in an area (2.6 and 2.7) in which the residual vertical bone height is minimal. So, the treatment protocol chosen is GSFE in order to regenerate bone, but first a complication has to be dealt with: Prof. Lundgren shows how to reach a good retraction of an excess before designing the flap.
Lecture 8:
ReLIVE Surgery - Virtually planned bilateral graftless LSFE placement of 3 + 3 implants placed in minimal residual bone assisted by full surgical guidance. Right side major perforation of the membrane and how it was managed
Here you can watch a five-minute fragment of the lesson.

In this third ReLIVE Surgery, Prof. Lundgren shows a standard lateral sinus elevation in order to perform enough bone augmentation to support 3 adjacent implants placement. But, while opening the bone window, Prof. Lundgren spotts out a membrane perforation and he explains how to deal with this situation.
Lecture 9:
ReLIVE Surgery - Virtually planned left side graftless LSFE and placement of 3 implants in severe alveolar atrophy with the assistance of a surgical guide
Here you can watch a five-minute fragment of the lesson.

During this ReLIVE Surgery, Prof. Lundgren places three adjacent implants: in the first and second premolar and in the first molar area. According to Prof. Lundgren, the minimal residual bone height of the site makes it necessary to plan a graftless sinus elevation.
Lecture 10:
Correct instrumentation and setting for their surgical use
Here you can watch a five-minute fragment of the lesson.

This is a concluding video in which all the instruments that are used in the ReLIVE Surgeries are shown. Moreover, in the final part of this presentation, Prof. Lundgren illustrates how to properly handle these instruments while performing LSFE surgical protocol.
