Objective: A description is made of transcrestal sinus lift using the sinus balloon technique, evaluating the bone height achieved and implant success one year after prosthetic loading.

Material And Method: Between January and July 2007, transcrestal sinus lift using the sinus balloon technique for dental implant placement was carried out in 6 patients. A panoramic X-ray study and maxillary computed tomography scan were carried out before the operation, in order to discard possible sinus pathology.

Article Synopsis
  • This study investigated the hemodynamic and ventilatory changes in 102 patients undergoing dental implant surgery with intravenous conscious sedation, focusing on the impact of factors like anxiety, age, and gender.
  • The monitoring of systolic pressure, diastolic pressure, heart rate, and oxygen saturation occurred at five key points during the procedure, revealing that vital signs fluctuated but remained within normal ranges.
  • Findings showed no significant link between vital sign changes and preoperative anxiety or gender; however, older patients exhibited higher blood pressure and lower oxygen saturation levels, indicating age-related differences in response to sedation.
