Reamer-scraping and implant-pushing technique for transcrestal sinus floor elevation.

Abstract

Transcrestal maxillary sinus floor elevation is an effective method to solve the problem of insufficient bone height in the posterior maxillary region. However, current methods, such as osteotome sinus floor elevation, cushioned grind-out technique, Smart Drill technique, etc., require specialized surgical tool boxes. In this article, we introduce a new method of transcrestal maxillary sinus elevation that uses built-in reamers of various implant systems to scrap residual bone at the sinus floor and uses the implant to push the sinus membrane during implant placement. This technique is easy to operate and time saving and has a low rate of sinus membrane perforation. After a one-year follow-up observation of 146 people and 175 implants, the endo-sinus bone gains were 5.00 (4.70, 5.30) mm and 2.10 (1.40, 2.70) mm in the group of 3 mm≤residual bone height (RBH)<5 mm and the group of 5 mm≤RBH<8 mm, respectively, which can meet the clinical requirements of implant stability. This technique is suitable in generalizing dental implantation.
