“…Maxillary sinus augmentation, which increases the height of the reduced alveolar bone in atrophic maxillary posterior teeth and enables the placement of implants, is a promising procedure with a high success rate. 10 In the past, residual alveolar bone with a thickness of 5 mm was considered the minimum bone height to obtain initial fixation of the implant, and delayed implantation was recommended for residual alveolar bone <5 mm. 11 However, later studies have shown that the survival rate of implants after maxillary sinus-lift surgery does not depend on the timing of implant placement.…”

Microstomia is caused by congenital growth abnormalities, exposure to electricity or chemicals, or direct burns. In the case of burn-induced microstomia, treatment is difficult because of fibrosis at the burn site. During dental treatment, buccal retraction is necessary to access the posterior teeth. When performing maxillary sinus augmentation using the lateral approach, sufficient buccal retraction through the buccal vestibule is required. Implant placement with sinus augmentation in patients with burn-induced microstomia caused by is very difficult to treat. Herein, we describe the successful results of simultaneous bilateral sinus augmentation and implant placement along with commissuroplasty and upper-lip reconstruction using mucosal advancement in a patient with burn-induced microstomia.
