Survival rate of Astra Tech implants with maxillary sinus lift

چکیده
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to retrospectively evaluate the clinical survival rate of Astra Tech implants in the maxillary molar region performed with sinus lift and bone graft. MATERIALS AND METHODS Ninety-nine Astra Tech implants (Osseospeed) placed in the maxillary molar region using sinus lift from September 2009 to February 2012 were selected with a minimum follow-up period of 1 year. The height of alveolar bone, sinus approach technique, bone material and implant survival rate were evaluated. RESULTS Of the 99 implants, the survival rate was 90.9%; 8 implants failed within 1 year after implant placement, and 1 implant failed 1 year after implant loading. All failed implants were placed with sinus lift simultaneously. The average height of alveolar bone before implant placement was 6.9 mm, while the height of alveolar bone of failed implants was 2.1 mm, on average. CONCLUSION Astra Tech implants placed in the maxillary molar region had generally good survival rates, but the relationship between reduced pre-implant alveolar bone height and implant failure requires further attention.

Commentary to "Survival rate of Astra Tech implants with maxiilary sinus lift"
study was 4 mm, whereas that of Yoon et al.’s study was 1.2 mm. A study by Geurs et al. found a significant difference in implant loss when residual bone height was less than 4 mm, as compared to 5 mm or greater. The authors should not have drawn a conclusion solely based on one other similar study. The referenced study by Jurisic et al. is not the same as the study done by Yoon et al., and thu...
متن کاملInfluence of perforation of the sinus membrane on the survival rate of implants placed after direct sinus lift. Literature update.
The aim of this paper was to review the procedures adopted when a perforation of the sinus membrane takes place during a direct sinus lift for filling with bone graft; and the survival of implants in those cases in which perforation of the sinus membrane occurred. A bibliographical search in PUBMED was carried out of articles published from 1997 to 2008, with the key words "sinus perforation" a...

Introduction: Maxillary sinus lift combined with implant placement without grafting allows bone formation in the sinus. However, bone volume in severely atrophic maxilla is often insufficient to ensure initial stability of implants. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the outcome of maxillary sinus augmentation by graft-free two-stage sinus lift using titanium bone fixation device and imp...
