Sinus Augmentation – State of the Art

Description:
Sinus Augmentation is recognized to be one of the most predictable procedures for dental implant placement in the severely atrophic posterior maxilla. Dr. Ziv Mazor discusses how to achieve successful results by creating bone in the posterior maxilla with osseointegration maintaining occlusal function under load.

dear dr mazor,posterior maxilla is always a problem ,what is the reason for using tapered implants?

Ziv Mazor - (1/24/2010 11:44 AM)

I have many cases done with minimal amount of residual bone height all done with simultaneous implant placement.As long as you use tapered implants and no denture-there should be no problem. In 1996 we published in the JOMI 9 year longitudinal study done with 731 sinuses and more than 2000 implants placed simultaneously regrdless of the alveolar bone height.
As for the membrane it need not be fixated.
As for splinting- I always connect the implants with the fixed prosthesis.
The only differences in the surgical technique used today are:Using Piezo instead of the bur,Filling up the sinus before implant placement and the use of PRF together with the grafting material.

very delicate surgery.these type of cases are very common in india where bone qulity is very poor in posterior maxilla. do you suggest the collagen membrane has to be fixed, or it does not matter? when do you load these cases. what is your long term experience on these type of cases.? also what type of prosthesis do you suggest splint all implants together, or do single crowns on them?

Michael Seda - (6/17/2009 1:09 AM)

Again, to follow the first question, why not allow the graft material to heal first, then place the fixtures 6-8 months later when better primary stability can be achieved?

Ziv Mazor - (11/4/2008 12:24 PM)

After elevation of the sinus membrane there are two possibilities for placing the implants simultaneously with the grafting material. The first option is placing the fixtures half way, adding the grafting material in all aspects and then screw the fixtures all the way. The second option and that is how I do my sinus augmentations today is filling up the entire compartment and than screw the fixture all the way. Care should be taken to ensure adequate filling especially on the palatal medial aspect.

why not graft first and THEN place the implants in solid bone?

Crestal Approach Sinus Augmentation with Osteotome Technique and Cartridge Delivery System
There are several ways to elevate the sinus membrane when accessed through the crest of the ridge and deliver graft into the sinus. Summers’ osteotome technique is one of the most widely used surgical procedures to achieve sinus elevation. One of the biggest challenges is instrumentation and grafting through the prepared osteotomy site. In this video, Dr. Kher will demonstrate the new cartridge delivery system from NovaBone that considerably reduces site preparation and facilitates elevation of the sinus membrane with the hydraulic pressure of Putty as it is delivered into the sinus.

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.

Alternative Applications of Guided Surgery: Precise Outlining of the Lateral Window in Antral Sinus Bone Grafting
Computed tomography (CT) and the application of CT-based guided implant surgery allow clinicians to provide enhanced precision and accuracy in implant surgery. Because of the difficulty in transferring a patient’s often complex anatomic sinus configurations, as viewed on a preoperative CT scan, into precise osteotomy cuts at antral bone graft surgery, a prototype cutting guide was developed. The surgical guide was developed through the use of CT imaging and the stereolithographic process to precisely position the lateral window, facilitating schneiderian membrane elevation. This report demonstrates the step-by-step method to perform precise guided sinus window preparation using computer software and a stereolithographically generated surgical guide.

Controlling Systematic Perioperative Anaerobic Contamination During Sinus-Lift Procedures by Using Metronidazole: An Innovative Approach

Controlling Systematic Perioperative Anaerobic Contamination During Sinus-Lift Procedures by Using Metronidazole: An Innovative Approach
Analysis of tomodensitometric controls following sinus grafts clearly demonstrates a quite systematic lack of homogeneity. Sinus contamination by anaerobic bacteria seems almost unavoidable during bone graft surgery, and this problem may jeopardize the healing process.The aim of this study was to characterize in a systematic way the nonhomogeneities observed at 1,2,or 3 months post surgery within allogenous sinus grafts,and to assess the possible influence of a 0.5% sterile solution of metronidazole in corporated in the sinus bonegraft.
