Augmentation grafting of the maxillary sinus for placement of dental implants: anatomy, physiology, and procedures.
TLDR
In patients with an inadequate amount of bone for implant placement, sinus lift surgery can be performed to restore a sufficient amount of alveolar bone to allow for successful implant placement and subsequent prosthetic reconstruction.Abstract:
In patients with an inadequate amount of bone for implant placement, sinus lift surgery can be performed to restore a sufficient amount of alveolar bone to allow for successful implant placement and subsequent prosthetic reconstruction. In this article, the anatomy and physiology of the maxillary sinus, the mechanisms of bonegrafting, bone grafting material, preoperative evaluation, surgical technique, and the grafting procedure, as well as intraoperative bleeding and postoperative complications, are discussed.

Journal Article
A clinical study of the outcomes and complications associated with maxillary sinus augmentation.
TL;DR: In the present study sinus membrane perforation was not shown to be a significant factor in the rate of implant complications, however, the combination of smoking and onlay bone grafting could significantly increase the rates of postoperative infection following sinus grafting.

Repair of the perforated sinus membrane with a resorbable collagen membrane: a human study.
TL;DR: It is suggested that repairing the perforated site of the sinus membrane with a resorbable collagen membrane may result in reduced bone formation and implant survival rate and a different technique and/or materials than those used in the current study may offer better results.

Prevalence, diameter and course of the maxillary intraosseous vascular canal with relation to sinus augmentation procedure: a radiographic study.
TL;DR: It is recommended to place the superior border of the osteotomy up to 15 mm from the alveolar crest in A to C type ridges to avoid penetration of the artery.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sinus augmentation complications: etiology and treatment.
TL;DR: A newly proposed complication classification is reviewed, treatment modalities for each encountered complication are discussed and methods to avoid these complications are proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Three-dimensional finite-element analysis of functional stresses in different bone locations produced by implants placed in the maxillary posterior region of the sinus floor
TL;DR: The maximum von Mises stresses in the implants were localized in the neck of implants for 4- and 5-mm bone levels, but for 7-, 10-, and 13- mm bone levels more even stresses occurred within the implants.
