EAO‐501/PO‐BR‐008 | Preclinical evaluation of an injectable composite material for sinus lift, with implant placement

The aim of this case report is to present a case of root fragment removal during planned sinus lift procedure. After failed molar tooth extraction, we chose to retrieve the residual root apex with transantral approach not to damage excessively bone volume. Without changing primary implant rehabilitation purpose, the fragment removal procedure was performed prior to implant placement during necessary sinus lift surgery. Higher visibility of surgical field was achieved. The root fragment residual was removed without an additional surgery appointment avoiding postoperative discomfort. The goal is to underline the importance of being able to change planning during intrasurgical complications. It is most appropriate to operate with safe and simple procedures to reduce surgical discomfort for the patient.

Maxillary Sinus Floor Elevation

The sinus lift is a procedure that is used frequently in oral surgery, different techniques exist to perform this procedure approaches, which allow the surgeon to give a sufficient bone height for planning a rehabilitative treatment with implant at the required site. In this case the unilateral lifting of the maxillary sinus floor by buccal bone window, with subsequent implant placement and lyophilized human bone in a single surgical procedure.

Implant Treatment

ABSTRACTDue to the angulation of maxillary bone as the maxillary bone resorption occurs from a buccal to palatal direction, bucco-lingually tilted implant placement is more likely especially in the posterior maxilla. The aim of this paper was to present a case restored by using a maxillary hybrid denture using Cresco method. A 59-year-old woman with an edentulous maxilla and five missing mandibular teeth was referred for implant treatment. Six months after sinus lift operation, four mandibular implants and six maxillary implants were placed. Due to the bucco-lingual tilt of two implants, the Cresco method was chosen to fabricate the metal framework for the maxillary hybrid denture that was delivered four months after implant placement. The main advantages of the Cresco method are a perfectly passive framework fit and corrected screw access holes. All ten implants placed were considered successful at 1-year recall, and no screw access holes were seen in the buccal part of the maxillary acrylic teeth.It was concluded that such screw-retained maxillary hybrid denture using the Cresco method met the esthetic expectations of a highly demanding patient.
