Sammanfattning
Sinus floor elevation is a well-established method for increasing the height of the atrophic maxilla. The visual guidance of minimal invasive internal sinus floor elevation by an endoscope helps preventing, diagnosing and managing complications, such as sinus membrane perforation. The aim of the clinical follow-up was to evaluate whether endoscopic guided sinus floor elevation procedures can be used to create sufficient bone support for primary stable implant placement and persistent implant success.
Following internal sinus floor elevation in 30 patients, 62 implants were placed without any graft material.
Radiological pictures were made pre-, post-operative and after 24 months in order to evaluate the implant bone contact. It was found an average pre-operative height of the maxillary alveolar bone of 6,7 mm. The average bone gain was 3,5 1,8 mm and 4,5 1,9 mm in the premolar and molar sites, respectively. Clinical evaluation revealed satisfactory outcomes of the inserted implants. The implant success rate was 94 % (3 failed implants). After loading, no implant failure was observed.
The clinical outcomes of this follow-up show that endoscopic guided internal sinus floor elevation combined with implant placement gave low intra-operative trauma, good implant stability upon placement and high success rates after 24 months of loading.
