Statement Of Problem: Factors influencing early implant failure (failure during the healing period) in the rehabilitation and restoration of oral function in partially edentulous patients are unclear.
Purpose: The purpose of this clinical study was to investigate several factors that may be associated with early implant failure.
Material And Methods: This retrospective study was conducted on 3247 implants in 2061 patients between 2009 and 2022.
Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate factors related to new bone formation (NBF) following simultaneous implant placement with transcrestal sinus floor elevation (TSFE).
Materials And Methods: Between 2008 and 2020, 357 implants (276 patients) were placed with TSFE. Clinical and radiographic examinations were performed at the preoperative, postoperative, restoration, and follow-up stages.
Background: Currently, insufficient bone volume always occurs in the posterior maxilla which makes implantation difficult. Short implants combined with transcrestal sinus floor elevation (TSFE) may be an option to address insufficient bone volume.
Purpose: The clinical performance of short implants combined with TSFE was compared with that of conventional implants combined with TSFE according to the survival rate.
Background: Transcrestal sinus floor elevation (TSFE) has been widely used in the oral clinic when the residual bone height (RBH) exceeds 5 mm. However, when there is insufficient RBH in the posterior maxilla, two-stage TSFE may be an option.
Case Summary: This article introduces the concept of two-stage TSFE.
