“…Furthermore, the local impact on the ridge by ill-fitting dentures and occlusal load from opposing dentition may contribute to the atrophy. 34,35 Two main techniques of sinus floor elevation for dental implant placement are in use: a two-stage technique with a lateral window approach, followed by implant placement after a healing period, and a onestage technique using either a lateral or transalveolar approach. In the present study, the patient's mean age was 62 years, suggesting that these factors may have played a role for the degree of jaw atrophy.…”

The osseous volume of a large edentulous ridge might be clinically overestimated in preimplant diagnosis, as the relative bone width was generally lower than 50%. Clinicians can use the present results of the virtual bone and mucosa measurements to have a better first estimation of the osseous proportion depending on the maxillary area. However, up to date implant therapy for the edentulous maxilla requires CT-based prosthetically driven implant planning and preferably combination with guided implant placement by transferring planning information to a surgical template.

“…No statistically significant difference was found between the outcomes of the two groups using Pearson's test (p = .32; OR = 0.79; 95% CI 0.50, 1.26). A total of 1,791 implants in 15 studies 11,[13][14][15]17,[19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27]29 were considered: 387 implants shorter than 8.5 mm, 769 from 8.5 mm to 10 mm long, and 635 longer than 10 mm. The mean values of these variables are also reported for each study, when available.…”

Implant rehabilitation of the edentulous posterior maxilla may be a challenging procedure in the presence of insufficient bone volume for implant placement. Maxillary sinus augmentation with or without using grafting materials aims to provide adequate bone volume. The aim of the present study was to systematically review the existing literature on transalveolar maxillary sinus augmentation without grafting materials and to propose and describe an osteotome-mediated approach in postextraction sites in combination with platelet derivative. The systematic review showed that high implant survival rate (more than 96% after 5 years) can be achieved even without grafting the site, with a low rate of complications. Available alveolar bone height before surgery was not correlated to survival rate. In the described case report, three implants were placed in posterior maxilla after extraction of two teeth. An osteotome-mediated sinus lifting technique was performed with the use of platelet derivative (PRGF); a synthetic bone substitute was used to fill the gaps between implant and socket walls. No complications occurred, and implants were successfully in site after 1 year from prosthetic loading. The presented technique might represent a viable alternative for the treatment of edentulous posterior maxilla with atrophy of the alveolar bone though it needs to be validated by studies with a large sample size.
