Intra-sinus calcifications (ISCs) which are noted only in 2.4 percent of maxillary sinus pathology can be a challenging condition for the implantologists. A few studies describe only a recommendation for the centrally localized calcification spots in the maxillary sinus. Simultaneously, there is no publications focused on lateral sinus lift performance in cases of laterally, peripherally located linear ISCs. The purpose of our report is to present a surgical tactic for lateral approach of Schneiderian membrane elevation in a 58-year-old female with linear and fine punctate calcifications, inta-sinus hyperostosis, and mucosal swelling with height above the middle level of the sinus.

Introduction. For maxillary sinus membrane elevation (MSME), the lateral window approach and crestal approach are available, and high success rates have been achieved with low residual bone height as a development of technology. Objective. To evaluate MSME using the crestal approach with a rotary-grind bur (RGB (including reamer or sinus bur)) in patients with residual bone height of <4 mm. Materials and Methods. Ten implants were placed in 10 patients with residual bone height of <4 mm, by sinus elevation using an RGB. The implant stability quotient (ISQ) was measured immediately after implant placement (ISQ 1) and before taking impression for the final prosthesis (ISQ 2). The extent of marginal bone loss was measured on periapical radiographs. Results. The mean residual bone height before implant placement was 3.41 ± 0.53 mm; no complications, including membrane perforation, severe postoperative pain, or discomfort, occurred either during or after surgery. The mean ISQ 1 was 63.4 ± 12.1, whereas the mean ISQ 2 was 77.6 ± 5.8. The mean marginal bone resorption was 0.23 ± 0.18 mm on periapical radiographs. Conclusions. MSME using the crestal approach with an RGB is a reliable technique for implant placement in sites where available bone is insufficient.
