C.M.C Technique

Crestal Approach with Membrane Control

The Strong Points

– Able to detach and bring the membrane to the desired height.

– No perforation of the membrane because the instrument is never in direct contact with the membrane.

– Atraumatic surgery and an easy protocol for all dentists to follow.

– Saves time for the patient in the chair

– The instrument can be used regardless of the height of the residual bone

Regarding the technique of lifting the sinus, more dentists preferred the lateral approach to the traditional crestal approach. It allowed them to see and control the membrane by looking with their eyes.

The lateral approach ensures stable sinus elevation as the procedure is performed by inspecting the membranes visually. Unfortunately, the healing period is longer and therefore the risk of infection by bacteria increases.

With the IBS CMC technique, you benefit from both the advantages of the crestal approach and the advantages of the lateral approach. This approach overcomes the limitations of the crestal approach as well.

The IBS implant technique requires that the remaining bone attached to the maxillary sinus can be maintained by our Magic Sinus Lifter, and that the sinus membrane can be elevated to the desired height while controlling the direction or height.

By using our technique, you are in control directly as you are holding the maxillary sinus membrane. The healing time is overall shortened and the risk of infection reduced as a result.

Angled Hand Lever and Tapping Instrument Instructions

For use with the Magic Expander, Magic Split, Magic Sinus Lifter, and Bone Pusher.

To dismount instrument from hand lever, pull back the connection lock and pull out the instrument from the connection groove.

 

Precautions for using the C.M.C Technique

1. Tapping force must be gentle,

​2. If the instrument does not advance, the drill must be used to remove a portion of the bone

​3. When the instrument advances into the maxillary sinus, proceed slowly while further advancing (very slowly) until the membrane is elevated to the desired height.
