"The maxillary sinus: factors affecting bone formation in the maxillary sinus"
Sinus floor elevation represents a reliable technique for bone augmentation in the atrophic posterior maxilla.
Different studies have demonstrated that bone formation can occur in the maxillary sinus with and without the use of bone graft or substitutes but the exact mechanisms behind the bone formation observed are still not well understood and are subject to debate.
One aspect of clinical success in sinus floor augmentation is the deeper knowledge of the anatomy, physiology and the bone regeneration mechanisms in this specific anatomic area.
In this lecture an overview of the major factors affecting bone formation in the maxillary sinus will be demonstrated as well as some histological findings of a pilot study done on rabbits to determine the nature and characteristics of the bone to implant interface in case of intra alveolar sinus membrane elevation and simultaneous placement of dental implant.
