Abstract

Sinus lift operations have become a prerequisite for implantologists in the rehabilitation of atrophic posterior maxilla. Alloplasts and xenografts are the recent innovation in the world of grafting materials and have evolved in such a way as to compensate the need for autografts to be used in conjunction. In order to perfect the grafting materials, histomorphometry is the most often tool used to study the success of the augmentation. This article has tried to commemorate the importance of histomorphometry in maxillary antroplasty and also the success rate of beta-tricalciumphosphate and deproteinized bovine bone as an augmentation material in maxillary augmentation.

Highlights

  • Rehabilitation of severely atrophic maxilla with implants was a challenge for dental practitioners for a long time

  • Later it was found that allogenic, xenogenic or even alloplastic materials can be used for sinus lifts and were proved efficient

  • With the advent of histomorphometry, it is possible to find out the exact amount of newly formed bone and to evaluate the rate of resorption of graft material
