SINUS LIFT WITH GRANULAR AND BLOCK BONE SUBSTITUTES

The use of block grafts for the protection of the sinus membrane.

The sheet summarizes the case of a 64-year-old female patient who visited the doctor for the rehabilitation of the left posterior superior arch, edentulous from tooth 2.4 included.The CBCT scan showed extensive atrophy of the maxilla and a height of the bone ridge that, at certain sites, did not exceed 3-4 mm. The patient was therefore recommended a procedure of lateral maxillary sinus lift and simultaneous placement of three osteointegrated implants, to support three crowns. The procedure entailed using granular and block equine bone substitutes (Bioteck) and an equine collagen membrane (Biocollagen, Bioteck). The X-rays seven years after the procedure confirmed the adequate preservation of the regenerated bone volumes, as well as of the peri-implant bone levels.
