Dentium recently hosted its “Sinus Simple” seminar on April 11 at its Gwanggyo headquarters, presenting a new clinical direction aimed at simplifying sinus surgery into a more predictable and reproducible treatment process. 

Rather than focusing solely on surgical techniques, the seminar introduced the “Sinus Simple” concept as an integrated workflow connecting diagnosis, treatment planning, surgical execution, and complication management into a single clinical process.

The event attracted strong interest from clinicians seeking more systematic and predictable approaches to sinus augmentation procedures.

In the opening lecture, Dr. Byung-Gyu Park (Seoul Phil Dental Clinic) emphasized the critical importance of preoperative diagnosis as a key determinant of successful sinus surgery outcomes. 

Utilizing bright CT’s 4Tile (20×20 cm) imaging capability, he demonstrated how clinicians can identify sinus pathologies such as mucosal thickening, sinus polyps, and mucoceles prior to surgery and perform necessary pre-treatment procedures to establish safer surgical conditions.

Dr. Park also introduced criteria for selecting sinus augmentation approaches according to residual bone height, stressing that treatment decisions should be based on objective diagnostic findings rather than operator experience alone.

The seminar additionally showcased bright CT’s AI Sinus Bone Graft function, which enables clinicians to digitally predict the required graft volume and morphology prior to surgery. 

By allowing clinicians to simulate and plan outcomes before the procedure, the system was presented as a practical solution for reducing uncertainty in sinus augmentation treatment.

As a key component of the “Sinus Simple” concept, Dentium also introduced DASK Simple, an integrated sinus surgery system designed to support both crestal and lateral approaches within a standardized workflow. 

The system focuses on simplifying complex sinus procedures through step-by-step protocols and intuitive instrumentation.

Particular attention was given to the Compaction Drill, which utilizes a reverse rotation mechanism to elevate autogenous bone while condensing bone tissue during drilling. 

This approach was highlighted for its ability to improve both primary stability and grafting efficiency simultaneously.

In addition, the simplified drill sequence and standardized kit configuration were presented as factors that help reduce procedural variability and support more consistent clinical outcomes regardless of the operator’s experience level.

Professor Jin-Young Park (Yonsei University Dental Hospital) then provided a systematic overview of the key decision-making factors clinicians should consider during sinus surgery. 

His lecture included practical strategies for managing sinus septa, as well as complication management protocols for implant displacement into the sinus cavity and acute sinus infections.

By addressing not only surgical techniques but also complication management and overall clinical decision-making, the lecture reinforced the importance of comprehensive treatment planning in sinus augmentation procedures.

The seminar further enhanced its practical value through an accompanying hands-on session. 

Participants directly practiced bicortical fixation, crestal approach techniques, and lateral approach procedures using the DASK Simple system, allowing them to translate lecture concepts into actual clinical workflows.

Attendees noted that the hands-on training improved their understanding of sinus surgery while increasing confidence in applying complex procedures through a more structured and simplified process.

Dentium explained that the “Sinus Simple” concept is intended to reposition sinus surgery from a technique-dependent procedure into a reproducible clinical workflow. 

By integrating CT-based precision diagnostics, AI-assisted surgical planning, and standardized instrumentation systems such as DASK Simple into a unified process, the concept aims to make sinus surgery more accessible, predictable, and efficient for clinicians.

A Dentium representative commented, “Sinus surgery is traditionally considered a highly technique-sensitive procedure that requires different approaches depending on the case. 

However, digital diagnostics and systematic workflows can significantly simplify the process.”

The representative added, “Sinus Simple is not merely about making procedures easier—it is about establishing reproducible clinical standards that any clinician can follow. 

Dentium will continue expanding both educational programs and clinical solutions that help practitioners achieve more predictable and stable treatment outcomes.”
