Summary:
Endosseous dental implant surgery in the posterior maxilla requires the consideration of multiple factors, especially those of anatomic origin. Due to the reduced bone quality of the posterior maxilla, edentulism in this sextant often results in a resorbed osseous structure and a pneumatized maxillary sinus. When <5 mm of residual
bone remains between the alveolar crest and the
maxillary sinus, the traditional treatment option of
choice prior to implant placement is subantral
augmentation, more commonly known as the lateral
window sinus lift. This approach to increasing bone
available for placing implants uses a ‘‘window’’ in the
lateral bony wall of the maxillary sinus to gain access
to the underlying Schneiderian membrane. Although
implant survival rates associated with this procedure
routinely exceed 90%,the lateral window sinus lift
remains a technique-sensitive procedure due to the
high risk of Schneiderian membrane perforation
and hemorrhagic complications, the latter of which
is associated with the inadvertent laceration of the
intraosseous arterial supply to this region.

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.

Minimally Invasive Transcrestal Sinus Augmentation(MITSA)
In this video Dr Kher discusses a method of transitioning from the lateral window sinus elevation procedure to a less invasive transcrestal sinus elevation in cases with alveolar ridge height between 3-5mm. The technique is based on using an ossteotome mediated lift combined with a novel delivery system of injecting the calcium phosphosilicate putty graft material. Dr Kher presents a case series wherein lifts in excess of 10mm were consistently achieved using this technique. A study comparing the increase in alveolar ridge height with the novel transalveolar technique and the conventional lateral window lift is also a part of the presentation.

Sinus Augmentation with rhBMP-2 and Simultaneous Nonsubmerged Implant Placement
This case features the use of rhBMP-2 and mineralized allograft for grafting the partially pneumatized left maxillary sinus along with simultaneous placement of a large diameter implant in a nonsubmerged mode into the maxillary left second bicuspid site. The step-by-step surgical protocol will focus on incision design, lateral window osteotomy, membrane elevation and repair, the use of rhBMP-2 for bone grafts, and simultaneous non-submerged implant placement.

Past, Present & Future in Sinus Augmentation: From Lateral Approach to Osseodensification
The lateral window osteotomy (LWO) has been the most frequently utilized and published approach to sinus augmentation, presumably because there are no bone height restrictions and it provides the surgeon with more visual control; it is however, considered to be invasive, time consuming ,expensive and associated with patient morbidity. As a less invasive alternative to the LWO, transcrestal osteotome, balloon and hydrodynamic techniques can obtain a localized elevation of the sinus floor through a 3 - 10 mm diameter crestal osteotomy, minimizing the degree of flap elevation and eliminating the need for preparation of a larger bony window in the lateral aspect of the alveolus. The presentation will show the evolution is sinus augmentation approaches and will focus on current step by step Osseodensification sub crestal sinus elevation with long term follow ups of both clinical and CBCT radiographs.

The Magnetic Mallet and It’s Use in Daily Practice - Clinical Perspective
This innovative machine called the Magnetic Mallet is a device based on a EU/US patent of invention in oral surgery. It uses magnetism to generate a very impressive acceleration of the osteotomes that maximizes the forces applied to the bone (making the procedure fast and efficient) and in the meantime minimizes the inertia and discomfort for the patient. Such speed doesn’t cause any bone heating therefore irrigation water is also not needed!

Prevention and Treatment of Post-Operative Infections After Sinus Elevation Surgery
Maxillary sinus surgery is a reliable and predictable treatment option for the prosthetic rehabilitation of the atrophic maxilla. Nevertheless, these interventions are not risk-less of postoperative complications with respect to implant positioning in pristine bone. The aim of this lecture is to report the results of a clinical consensus of experts (periodontists, implantologists, maxillofacial surgeons, ENT, and microbiology specialists) on several clinical questions and to give clinical recommendations on how to prevent, diagnose, and treat postoperative infections.
