Upon completion of this course, you should be able to:

• Review surgical techniques used to restore the atrophic posterior maxilla
• Review the history of jaw reconstruction and augmentation from invasive surgical procedures to more successful, less invasive procedures used today
• Learn the CM Misch Classifications to help develop a surgical treatment plan to obtain adequate osseointegration of the implants
• Review the Cortically Fixed at Once concept for rehabilitating patients who have considerable resorption of the alveolar process
• Identify when long implants in the facial buttresses are necessary
