Nowadays implant-prosthetic rehabilitations are one of the best solutions for rehabilitating our patients. These allow obtaining rehabilitations with optimal functional and aesthetic performances. Often patients, who undergo implant-prosthetic therapy, have the conditions of edentulias, single or multiple, that have been going on for some time. This, according to the literature, produces resorption of the alveolar bone, a process that is complicated in the posterior area of the upper arch by a pneumatization of the maxillary sinuses. The loss of vertical height, so that the implant fixtures can be inserted, requires a maneuver called maxillary sinus floor elevation. This procedure, now safely performed with piezoelectric instruments, allows increasing bone height through bone grafting. In this study, the tissue obtained from a patient, after 15 years from the intervention, was evaluated by histological and SEM analyses. The bone healing in the patient has led to a perfect integration between the patient’s bone and the fresh frozen allograft used, however still present and detectable after 15 years.

The sinus lift is a procedure that is used frequently in oral surgery, different techniques exist to perform this procedure approaches, which allow the surgeon to give a sufficient bone height for planning a rehabilitative treatment with implant at the required site. In this case the unilateral lifting of the maxillary sinus floor by buccal bone window, with subsequent implant placement and lyophilized human bone in a single surgical procedure.

The objective was to review publications on indirect osteotome maxillary sinus floor elevation (OMSFE) procedures. Studies published between 1999 and 2010 on patients with a minimum of 1 year of follow-up were analyzed. Fourteen studies were included. Indirect OMSFE is indicated for a bone height of 6–8 mm. More bone height was gained when graft material was used. Schneiderian membrane perforation was the most frequent complication. Survival rates varied between 93.5% and 100%. Osteotome sinus membrane elevation is a predictable and effective procedure for placing implants in areas of the posterior maxilla with low bone height.

Abstract Background: The present study examined the effectiveness of high-purity macro/microporous beta-tricalcium phosphate (HPMM β-TCP) as a bone grafting material for maxillary sinus floor elevation by morphometric and histopathological, histomorphometric evaluations.Methods: Ten maxillary sinus floor elevation procedures using 100% HPMM β-TCP were performed on 10 patients. Morphometric evaluation was carried out by CT imaging immediately after augmentation and prior to dental implant placement after 7 months.Histopathological and histomorphometric evaluation were carried out by bone biopsy retrieval at the time of dental implant placement 7 months after sinus floor elevation. Results: All 10 sinus floor elevations were successful. Morphometric evaluation by CT images showed that the vertical height and the volume gained by sinus floor elevation decreased 7 months after surgery. Histopathological evaluation by bone biopsy retrieval specimens showed no signs of inflammation at the newly formed bone area and the native alveolar bone area. New bone formation was observed at the cranial side from the native alveolar bone. The newly formed bone had a trabecular structure and was in intimate contact with the HPMM β-TCP material. Histomorphometric evaluation by bone biopsy retrieval specimens revealed an average new bone volume of 33.97%±2.79% and an average residual HPMM β-TCP volume of 15.81%±4.52%.Conclusions: In this study, HPMM β-TCP showed the osteoconductive properties for vertical augmentation of the atrophied maxilla by means of a maxillary sinus floor elevation procedure allowing subsequent dental implant placement after a 7-month healing period.

Maxillary sinus floor elevation has been extensively documented as a safe and predictable procedure for gaining vertical bone height in the atrophic posterior maxilla. Even though, complications have been reported, which can potentially jeopardize the outcome of the regeneration and implant therapy. Therefore, the purpose of this literature review is to present, debate and analyze the different complications that can occur during a sinus floor elevation.
