The bone available for implant placement may be limited by the presence of the maxillary sinus togetherwith loss of alveolar bone height and it may be increased by augmentation. Minimally invasive sinusaugmentation is an effective solution for this problem. This review explains indirect sinus augmentationprocedures which are less invasive and highly successful if done using prescribed technique.

The aims of this study were to propose a minimally invasive lateral approach technique for maxillary sinus floor elevation (MSFE) with simultaneous implant placement and to evaluate the surgical outcome and complications of this technique. This study reviewed 49 surgeries of MSFE with simultaneous implant placement (n = 83) using a minimally invasive lateral approach. A circular shape window with a diameter of 5 to 6 mm and an area of 20–30 mm2 was made on the lateral wall of the maxillary sinus. After elevation of the Schneiderian membrane, the xenograft was used for bone grafting. The MSFE was possible with a minimum-sized window in 47 of 49 cases. For the remaining 2 cases, MSFE with a minimum-sized window was failed. In one case, it was expanded to be more than 30 mm2 to repair the membrane perforation. In another case, MSFE was performed by forming two minimum-sized windows. Post-operative bleeding after MSFE occurred in one anticoagulant-treated patient. There was no failed implant during the follow-up period (mean 22 months). A minimally invasive lateral approach through a small circular window with a diameter of 5 to 6 mm is a feasible and safe technique for MSFE with simultaneous implant placement.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the performance of implant-derived minimally invasive sinus floor elevation. A multicenter retrospective study was performed in 5 dental clinics. Patients requiring sinus augmentation for single implant placement were recorded and followed up. The dental implant used in this trial was a self-tapping endosseous dental implant that contains an internal channel to allow the introduction of liquids through the implant body into the maxillary sinus; those liquids include saline and a flowable bone grafting material. Overall, 37 implants were installed in 37 patients. The age range of the patients was 37–75 years (mean: 51.2 years). The average residual bone height prior to the procedure was 5.24 ± 1 mm. Of all cases, 25 implants replaced the maxillary first molar and 12 replaced the maxillary second premolar. All surgeries were uneventful with no apparent perforation of the sinus membrane. The mean follow-up time was 24.81 ± 13 months ranging from 12 to 65 months. All implants integrated and showed stable marginal bone level. No adverse events were recorded during the follow-up period. The presented method for transcrestal sinus floor elevation procedure can be accomplished using a specially designed dental implant. Further long-term studies are warranted to reaffirm the results of this study.
