Purpose: To study the clinical effect of osteotome sinus floor elevation (OSFE) combined with simultaneous implant placement in the treatment of edentulous posterior maxilla subject to insufficient bone height in the periodontally compromised patients.

Methods: Forty-seven Straumanns implants were placed in the posterior maxilla in 35 patients with the procedure of OSFE. The final prostheses were restored after 3 to 6 months. The follow-up period was 6 to 30 months. Radiographs were taken and PD, PLI, BOP were measured and analyzed.

Results: The overall survival rate was 95.74% during the study period. Forty-five out of the 47 implants were clinically stable and loaded without pain or any subjective sensation. The perforation ratio of the membrane was 4.26%. The average of PD around the implants was (3.22±1.07) mm. The average of the marginal bone loss was (1.38±0.59) mm.

Conclusions: OSFE without bone graft proves to be an effective and predictable treatment for atrophic edentulous posterior maxillary region in patients with periodontitis, but the long-term effect needs further observation.

Background: Osteotome sinus floor elevation (OSFE) procedure with simultaneous implant placement is known to be an efficient procedure in the atrophic maxilla, where bone regeneration is required the most. The purpose of this study was to radiologically evaluate the efficacy of using Bio-Oss Collagen with Concentrated Growth Factor (CGF) as grafting materials for OSFE with simultaneous implant placement in the atrophic maxilla after one year of functional loading.

Methods: A total of 126 implants were placed for 123 patients.

Introduction: Maxillary sinus pneumatization increases with age and tooth loss, leading to a reduction in the maxillary alveolar ridge, which often results in insufficient bone height for the proper placement of dental implants. This study focused on performing maxillary sinus elevations in ex vivo bisected pig heads using novel access and elevation devices, comparing these with the osteotome sinus floor elevation (OSFE) technique.

Materials And Methods: An experimental study was conducted using 20 ex vivo adult pig heads.

Purpose: The bone-implant interface plays a crucial role in obtaining sufficient primary stability for dental implants in weak bone supports. The aim of this human cadaver study was to evaluate the primary stability of new thin-threaded implants when placed in type IV bone right after maxillary sinus floor elevation.

Materials And Methods: The study followed the CACTUS (ChAracteristics of Cadaver Training and sUrgical Studies) guidelines.

Introduction: Maxillary sinus floor elevation is a surgical procedure intended to increase the volume of the bone vertically to accommodate dental implant placement. This intervention is frequently required for implant installation in the posterior maxilla, where the bone may be insufficient for securing implants of necessary length and stability. Sinus floor elevation can be completed either through a direct approach with a "window" through the lateral wall of the alveolar ridge or an indirect "transcrestal/transalveolar" sinus floor elevation (TSFE), which accesses the sinus floor through the crest of the edentulous ridge.

Transcrestal maxillary sinus floor elevation is an effective method to solve the problem of insufficient bone height in the posterior maxillary region. However, current methods, such as osteotome sinus floor elevation, cushioned grind-out technique, Smart Drill technique, etc., require specialized surgical tool boxes.
