PURPOSE The aim of this study was to evaluate single-tooth implant-supported restorations placed in conjunction with several methods of maxillary sinus augmentation. MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective review was conducted of all consecutively treated patients who received single-implant tooth rehabilitation in combination with sinus augmentation. Implant survival rate and peri-implant cond...

Implant-supported rehabilitation in the posterior maxillary region presents a series of challenges because of the possibility of increased pneumatization of the maxillary sinus after dental loss. In cases where significant maxillary bone resorption has occurred, efforts center on maximizing the use of the remaining bone to afford primary stability to the implants. This clinical report describes...

PURPOSE The sinus lift procedure requires detailed knowledge of maxillary sinus anatomy and the possible anatomical variations. This study evaluated the location and prevalence of maxillary sinus septa using computed tomography (CT). METHODS This study was based on the analysis of CT images for posterior maxilla which were obtained from patients who visited Chonbuk National University Dental ...

The study aimed to compare between dynamic implant valve (DIVA) and the crestal ballooning techniques in elevating maxillary sinus membrane (MSM) conjunction with simultaneous implantation. Patients methods: 20-patient prospective clinical cohort study. Ages ranged from 42 53 years, had atrophic edentulous maxillae posterior region. To determine status, patients were investigated utilizing intr...

We examine Weyl groups of minimal connected simple groups of finite Morley rank of degenerate type. We show that they are cyclic, and lift isomorphically to subgroups of the ambient group.

introduction frontal sinus mucoceles are the commonest among all paranasal mucoceles. with introduction of functional endoscopic sinus surgery, surgeons prefer endoscopic management of sinus mucoceles, but lesions that appear in the lateral part of the frontal sinus can be difficult to access and often need external approaches. case presentation we described a lateral frontal sinus mucocele wit...

OBJECTIVES The restoration of edentulous posterior maxilla with dental implants is challenging due to a deficient posterior alveolar ridge. Over the last decade an advance in the graftless bone augmentation procedures had occurred where the space left beneath the Schneiderian membrane is filled with blood clot in order to produce bone formation. The aim of present article is to review the scien...
