Implant rehabilitation of the edentulous posterior maxilla may be a challenging procedure in the presence of insufficient bone volume for implant placement. Maxillary sinus augmentation with or without using grafting materials aims to provide adequate bone volume. The aim of the present study was to systematically review the existing literature on transalveolar maxillary sinus augmentation without grafting materials and to propose and describe an osteotome-mediated approach in postextraction sites in combination with platelet derivative. The systematic review showed that high implant survival rate (more than 96% after 5 years) can be achieved even without grafting the site, with a low rate of complications. Available alveolar bone height before surgery was not correlated to survival rate. In the described case report, three implants were placed in posterior maxilla after extraction of two teeth. An osteotome-mediated sinus lifting technique was performed with the use of platelet derivative (PRGF); a synthetic bone substitute was used to fill the gaps between implant and socket walls. No complications occurred, and implants were successfully in site after 1 year from prosthetic loading. The presented technique might represent a viable alternative for the treatment of edentulous posterior maxilla with atrophy of the alveolar bone though it needs to be validated by studies with a large sample size.

Maxillary sinus augmentation is often necessary prior to implantology procedure, in particular in cases of atrophic posterior maxilla. In this context, bone substitute biomaterials made of biphasic calcium phosphates, produced by three-dimensional additive manufacturing were shown to be highly biocompatible with an efficient osteoconductivity, especially when combined with cell-based tissue engineering. Thus, in the present research, osteoinduction and osteoconduction properties of biphasic calcium-phosphate constructs made by direct rapid prototyping and engineered with ovine-derived amniotic epithelial cells or amniotic fluid cells were evaluated. More in details, this preclinical study was performed using adult sheep targeted to receive scaffold alone (CTR), oAFSMC, or oAEC engineered constructs. The grafted sinuses were explanted at 90 days and a cross-linked experimental approach based on Synchrotron Radiation microCT and histology analysis was performed on the complete set of samples. The study, performed taking into account the distance from native surrounding bone, demonstrated that no significant differences occurred in bone regeneration between oAEC-, oAFMSC-cultured, and Ctr samples and that there was a predominant action of the osteoconduction versus the stem cells osteo-induction. Indeed, it was proven that the newly formed bone amount and distribution decreased from the side of contact scaffold/native bone toward the bulk of the scaffold itself, with almost constant values of morphometric descriptors in volumes more than 1 mm from the border.

Sinus lift operations have become a prerequisite for implantologists in the rehabilitation of atrophic posterior maxilla. Alloplasts and xenografts are the recent innovation in the world of grafting materials and have evolved in such a way as to compensate the need for autografts to be used in conjunction. In order to perfect the grafting materials, histomorphometry is the most often tool used to study the success of the augmentation. This article has tried to commemorate the importance of histomorphometry in maxillary antroplasty and also the success rate of β-tricalciumphosphate and deproteinized bovine bone as an augmentation material in maxillary augmentation.

Homogeneous grafts from a bone bank, heterogeneous grafts and allow plastic grafts have already been studied and used for maxillary sinus elevation in order to reconstruct the bone for placement of dental implants. The present work aims to histologically assess bone neoformation from autogenous and heterogeneous (or xenogenous) bone grafts, in maxillary sinus lift surgery, an invasive technique. Six patients (total of 10 elevated maxillary sinuses) participated in the study with an alveolar bone remnant in the posterior region of the maxilla, less than 5mm, classification by Misch SA-4, evidenced through panoramic radiography. After a waiting period of tissue repair of 8 months, samples were collected and microscopic analysis was performed in 3 groups: autogenous group, Bio-Oss® group and Endobon® group. It was observed that the autogenous group has a statistically higher amount of bone matrix when compared to the other 2 groups. These did not differ from each other. The three types of grafts used promoted the expected new bone formation. Thus, one can choose any of the grafts evaluated to enable the installation of Osseointegrated implants and prosthetic rehabilitation in patients with the atrophic posterior maxilla.

Abstract Several regenerative therapies have been used for maxillary sinus grafting. However, recent advances in modern bone tissue engineering techniques have been evaluated. The aim of this histologic report was to evaluate the bone obtained by a culture of autogenous osteoblasts seeded on polyglycolic-polylactid scaffolds in maxillary sinus augmentation. A 56-year-old partially edentulous male with severe atrophy of the posterior maxilla received 6 polyglycolid-polylactid disks (8 mm diameter × 2 mm depth, Oral Bone), each carrying 1.5 million autogenous osteoblasts into the depth of the sinus cavity. After 6 months healing, a bone core was harvested and histologically evaluated. The augmented maxillary sinus with engineered bone presented a mean of 28.89% and 71.11% of bone and medullary spaces, respectively. Data from this case report demonstrate that the newly formed bone provided by engineered bone tissue allowed proper initial stability for dental implant placement. However, the role of this new bone in the long-term success of dental implant anchorage needs further investigation.
