“Sinus X GBR: Simplifying the Most Complex Procedures”
An Advanced Seminar Realizing Clinical Minimalism with bright Implant, DASK Simple, and Collagen Graft
Dentium successfully concluded the “Sinus X GBR Ultimate Seminar” on December 6, delivering an intensive clinical program focused on sinus elevation and guided bone regeneration (GBR). Following the Easy Bone Graft Consensus held in November, this seminar was designed to share detailed, practice-oriented protocols for sinus and GBR procedures, while enabling clinicians to gain hands-on experience with Dentium solutions—translating Dentium’s philosophy of “Minimalism” into real-world clinical practice.
Minimalism in Implant Dentistry with bright Implant
The opening session was led by Prof. Soo-Hwan Byun (Hallym University Sacred Heart Hospital), who introduced the concept of Minimalism using the bright Implant system. Drawing from extensive clinical experience, Prof. Byun emphasized that implant systems should be simple, prosthetically convenient, and capable of delivering consistent outcomes even in challenging cases.
He presented bright Implant Bone Level and Tissue Level systems as solutions that meet these requirements. In particular, the Tissue Level implant—despite its narrow diameter—demonstrates sufficient mechanical strength, allowing stable placement in narrow ridges, short ridges, and distal posterior areas, which previously often required bridge restorations. These advantages were demonstrated through real clinical cases, drawing strong interest from participants.
Simplifying Sinus Elevation with DASK Simple
In the sinus elevation session, Prof. Byun addressed management strategies for Schneiderian membrane perforation and introduced simplified approaches using DASK Simple. He explained that advances in implant systems with enhanced strength and stability—such as bright Implant—have eased traditional limitations of sinus elevation procedures.
Based on hands-on experience, he highlighted the structural advantages of DASK Simple’s Compaction Drill and Lateral Drill compared to conventional instruments. The Compaction Drill, designed with a reverse-rotation mechanism, simultaneously compacts lateral bone while elevating autogenous bone chips upward, allowing these bone chips to gently and stably lift the sinus membrane—an innovative approach that enhances both safety and efficiency.
Prof. Byun emphasized that “when instruments become simpler, procedures also become simpler—ultimately reducing chair time and patient discomfort.”
During the hands-on session, participants practiced bicortical fixation, crestal, and lateral approaches using DASK Simple and bright Implant, experiencing firsthand how sinus elevation procedures can be effectively simplified.
Easy GBR Protocols with Collagen-Containing Bone Grafts
The second lecture was delivered by Dr. Jung-Chul Park (Yonsei Goodday Dental Clinic) under the theme “Truly Easy GBR Using Collagen-Containing Bone Grafts.” He introduced GBR protocols that even less-experienced clinicians could immediately apply in daily practice.
Dr. Park explained how OSTEON™ Xeno Collagen simplifies conventional GBR procedures, allowing clinicians to perform GBR more quickly and intuitively. He shared clinical feedback demonstrating excellent handling properties and stable, evenly distributed bone quality on radiographic images following grafting.
Addressing common clinical concerns—often described as “exposure, infection, and resorption” during GBR—Dr. Park presented an open-healing approach using Collagen Graft x1D. He emphasized that open healing sutures significantly reduce suturing burden while enhancing tissue stability. Through step-by-step surgical case presentations, he provided evidence-based explanations of how Collagen Graft x1D improves soft tissue stability and healing predictability, supported by both clinical application and research data.
Hands-On GBR: Completing the Learning Experience
The subsequent GBR hands-on session further elevated the educational value of the seminar. Participants practiced intuitive and efficient fixation techniques using Collagen Membrane Soft and Membrane Pins, discovering how membrane stabilization—previously considered challenging—could be simplified with a single pin system.
They also applied the Easy Bone Graft concept step by step using OSTEON™ Xeno Collagen and Collagen Graft x1D, gaining a clear understanding of how clinical stability can be achieved through simplified protocols. Beyond theoretical learning, participants experienced hands-on training that enabled immediate clinical application. One attendee commented that “the protocols presented by Dr. Park significantly increased confidence in performing GBR procedures.”
Redefining Sinus and GBR Procedures Through Simplicity
The “Sinus X GBR Ultimate Seminar” was widely praised for reinterpreting sinus elevation and GBR—procedures frequently encountered yet often perceived as complex—through Dentium’s core philosophy of “Simple & Easy.” The program demonstrated the realistic potential to simplify high-difficulty procedures while maintaining clinical reliability.
Dentium will continue to expand the Minimal Surgery paradigm by providing clinicians with practical, immediately applicable protocols that support efficiency and predictability in everyday practice.
Looking Ahead: Diverse in Easy Bone Graft Forum 2026
Meanwhile, Dentium will host the “Diverse in Easy Bone Graft Forum” on January 10, 2026, at Dentium Headquarters in Gwanggyo. The forum will focus on key topics including Easy Bone Graft strategies, soft tissue management, and overcoming complex clinical cases, with an emphasis on theoretical foundations.
Covering a broad spectrum—from xenogeneic and synthetic bone graft strategies to staged soft tissue management and implant–GBR complication management—the forum is expected to attract strong interest from clinicians seeking comprehensive insights into reconstructive dentistry at the start of the new year.
