TLDR
The main advantage of this new technique, Intralift, is that it does not require a minimum amount of crestal bone and the possibility of damage to the sinus membrane is minimised by using ultrasound based hydrodynamic pressure to lift it, while applying a very non-aggressive crestal approach.Abstract:
Objectives: Placing implants in the posterior maxillary area has the drawback of working with scarce, poor quality bone in a significant percentage of cases. Numerous advanced surgical techniques have been developed to overcome the difficulties associated with these limitations. Subsequent to reports on the elevation of the maxillary sinus through the lateral approach, there were reports on the use of the crestal approach, which is less aggressive but requires a minimal amount of bone. Furthermore, it is more sensitive to operator technique, as the integrity of the sinus membrane is checked indirectly. The aim of this paper is to review the technical literature on minimally invasive sinus lift and compare the advantages of different techniques with Intralift™, a new technique. Study Design: The present study is a review of techniques used to perform minimally invasive sinus lift published in Cochrane, Embase and Medline over the past ten years and the description of the crestal sinus lift technique based on minimally invasive piezosurgery, with the example of a case report. Results: Only eight articles were found on minimally invasive techniques for sinus lift. The main advantage of this new technique, Intralift, is that it does not require a minimum amount of crestal bone (indeed, the smaller the width of the crestal bone, the better this technique is performed). The possibility of damage to the sinus membrane is minimised by using ultrasound based hydrodynamic pressure to lift it, while applying a very non-aggressive crestal approach. Conclusions: We believe that this technique is an advance in the search for less traumatic and aggressive techniques, which is the hallmark of current surgery.

Complications with transcrestal sinus floor elevation: etiology, prevention, and treatment
Michael Toffler,Paul S. Rosen +1 more
TL;DR: The combination of postextraction ridge resorption and pneumatization of the maxillary sinus often limits the bone available for implant placement in the posterior maxilla, and the lateral and transcrestal approaches to sinus floor elevation (SFE) and augmentation can reproduce adequate subantral bone volumes for implant-supported rehabilitation in this region.

TL;DR: The implants performed using OSFE in ungrafted sites were as stable as the implants placed in grafted sites.

TL;DR: This procedure (Intralift ®) allows, using a bovine material with no additional autogenous bone, new bone formation in the sinus in order to allow place implant subantraly.

Radiographic Analysis of Graft Dimensional Changes in Transcrestal Maxillary Sinus Augmentation: A Retrospective Study
TL;DR: The transcrestal technique for maxillary sinus augmentation is clinically useful in relation to a significant reduction of the time required for implant restoration, a consistent decrease of the number of surgical phases, and a cost-effectiveness approach for the rehabilitation.

TL;DR: The root and sinus series of the Omnii system have been used extensively and their design attempts to maximize the use of the available bone, and placement techniques allow the manipulation of bone to form sockets in otherwise deficient areas of bone.

A new concept in maxillary implant surgery: the osteotome technique.
TL;DR: The author concludes that the osteotome technique is superior to drilling for many applications in soft maxillary bone and allows more implants to be inserted in a greater variety of sites during a routine office procedure.

TL;DR: To test the null hypothesis of no difference in the success, function, morbidity and patient satisfaction between different bone augmentation techniques for dental implant treatment, 17 randomised controlled trials of different techniques and materials for augmenting bone for implant treatment were conducted.

Sinus floor elevation with osteotomes.
TL;DR: A new methodology for augmentation of the bone at the sinus floor that is less invasive than previous techniques is described, called the osteotome technique, which creates a site that previously had inadequate bone for immediate fixation of an implant.
