Abstract: | Sinus augmentation procedures are a standard part of implant dentistry. Indirect sinus augmentation procedures reduce the magnitude of the surgery when sinus lift procedures are necessary. This article describes a variation of the indirect augmentation of maxillary sinuses. The surgery is performed through small diameter surgical access openings. This modified indirect sinus augmentation procedure is combined with the immediate placement of one-stage dental implants that effectively seal the surgical access openings and have an anatomical exit profile for easier restoration. |
