Shortened dental arch as a solution for maxillary sinus proximity in dental implant restoration
نویسندگان
چکیده
This case report demonstrates the benefit of using the shortened dental arch (SDA) design for a comprehensive implant-supported restoration and the avoidance of the complexities of implant placement near the maxillary sinus. The SDA concept as a treatment option is encouraging in terms of function, patient satisfaction, and cost-effectiveness.

Evaluation of prevalence and pattern of maxillary sinus mucosal thickening in cone beam computed tomography of dental implant candidates in Shiraz, Iran
BACKGROUND AND AIM: This study aimed to assess maxillary sinus floor membrane thickness and ostium patency (OP) in patients undergoing cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) evaluation for implant placement in the posterior maxilla. Mucosal thickening (MT) could be cause of post-operative complications in implant procedures; awareness of this incidence could help proper detection and further succ...
متن کاملUsing Absorbable Gelatin Sponge to Facilitate Sinus Membrane Elevation during Open Sinus Lift: Technical Notes and Case Series
Ridge atrophy accompanied by the pneumatization of maxillary sinus in the maxillary posterior region may lead to inadequate bone height, thereby precluding implant placement. Therefore, it may be mandatory to perform a sinus membrane elevation procedure and augmentation in the bone. The present study aimed to introduce a novel modification method for sinus floor elevation using a gelatin sponge...
متن کاملComprehensive implant restoration and the shortened dental arch.
The restoration of edentulous space or hopeless teeth with implant-supported restorations can involve extensive time, effort, and financial commitment. This article presents a case of a debilitated dentition that was restored by using the shortened dental arch (SDA) concept in a comprehensive implant restoration. An SDA design was used to replace removable partial dentures with multiple nonspli...

Restoration of the posterior maxilla with reduced bone height and pneumatized sinus is a challenge to the implant surgeon. The surgeon has the option of a direct sinus-lift approach or an indirect blind approach. Both of which have its own complications. Displacement of an implant into the maxillary sinus is rare occurrence and normally seen after the implant has been in service for a number of...
