Summary:

The goal of this study was to histologically document the effect of two different implant surfaces on the percentage of bone-to-implant apposition achieved with implants placed in human sinus grafts. The influences of implant site and postgrafting delay time were also examined. Nine healthy volunteers were scheduled to undergo posterior maxillary sinus floor augmentation in preparation for delayed implant placement. In addition to the conventional dental implants selected for each case, titanium alloy experimental implants, 2.5 mm in diameter and 8 mm in length, were custom manufactured. Each microimplant was prepared longitudinally with two different surface topographies: machined on one side and MTX microtextured on the other side. A notch prepared across the superior aspect of the implants facilitated placement and provided a reference line between the two surfaces. Patients were divided into two groups that received the experimental microimplants at the time of conventional implant placement: Group A (six patients) received the experimental microimplants in the regenerated lateral wall of the sinus graft 11 months after graft placement, and group B (three patients) received them in the alveolar crest 6 months after graft placement. After 6 months of submerged healing, all experimental and conventional implants appeared to be clinically osseointegrated. Histologic analysis revealed that the mean bone-to-implant apposition was significantly greater with MTX (72.31% ± 17.76%) compared to machined surfaces (38.01% ± 19.32%), regardless of bone quality. The healing time between graft and implant placement and implant location did not statistically impact the percentage of bone-toimplant apposition.

Sinus Augmentation for Single-Tooth Replacement in the Posterior Maxilla: A 3-Year Follow-up Clinical Report
A technique for single-tooth sinus lift and simultaneous implant placement in the posterior maxilla is presented. Ten hydroxyapatite-coated cylindric implants, 13 to 15 mm in length, were placed together with a composite bone graft of demineralized freeze-dried bone allograft and autogenous bone in 10 adults. Surgical technique and anatomic considerations are discussed. Follow-up of 3 years showed successful function and no cervical bone loss in all patients.

Healing in Smokers Versus Nonsmokers: Survival Rates for Sinus Floor Augmentation with Simultaneous Implant Placement
Evidence suggests that smoking is detrimental to the survival of dental implants placed in grafted maxillary sinuses. Studies have shown that improving bone quantity and quality, using rough- surfaced implants, and practicing good oral hygiene may improve outcomes. In this prospective study, the long-term survival rates of implants placed simultaneously with sinus grafting in smokers and non- smokers were compared.

Tissue Engineering and Platelet Derived Growth Factors: Evidence Based Therapy
Platelet derived growth factors are now routinely utilized in reconstructive therapy. This presentation describes very detailed and evidence based guidelines for clinicians interested in enhancing their abilities in tissue engineering, especially as it relates to bone augmentation. Specifically, while successful bone augmentation requires the standard surgical parameters of space maintenance, low pressure on the grafts and tension-free flap closure, optimization of this goal requires management and enhancement of the local biological conditions with growth factors. Towards that end, platelet concentrates through the constant release of growth factors are able to promote and enhance new vascularization, provide plasma protein, normal lipidemia, as well as increased collagen and fibrin activity.
