Maxillary Sinus Lift Surgery: “Description and Comparison of the Different Techniques” Clinical Case of Sinus Lift and Placement of Phibo TSH and TSA Implants

Abstract

A bibliographic review was carried out on the different procedures and most common materials for augmentation or elevation of the maxillary sinus for the posterior or joint placement of endosseous implants. The objective of this work is to present a clinical case and review the existing literature. The topic has been widely discussed by different specialists, describing the different techniques, and also that it is a procedure with a high success rate. On the other hand, it can usually be performed in an outpatient clinic, respecting the concepts of asepsis that must be considered in oral surgery procedures: correct preparation of the equipment, sterilization of instruments and disinfection of the surgical field. That is, all instruments in previously sterilized airtight bags, surgical fields and sterile gloves, table and equipment, all properly disinfected. In addition, both the care team and the surgeon must have disposable sterile surgical caps and gowns. It is important to highlight that when handling bone fillers, they must also be packaged with the maximum sterilization protocols for their use.
