Article Synopsis
- This study investigates the use of poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) membranes as a covering for the bony window during maxillary sinus augmentation without grafting material.
- Eighteen rabbits underwent the procedure, where their bony windows were covered with either a collagen membrane, a PLLA membrane, or no membrane at all.
- Results showed no significant differences in new bone volume, but histological analysis indicated that PLLA membranes resulted in better new bone formation compared to collagen membranes.
