Abstract

The posterior maxilla is indubitably the site reported with highest failures in implant literature so far as the bone availability beneath the sinus poses a major challenge for surgeons. Sinus lift both by direct and various indirect accesses were hitherto utilized to counter the compromising situation. But the risk of implant failure if the implant was simultaneously placed besides the parasthesia, perforation and morbidity were experienced more with more the cases documented. The osseodensification(OD), a relatively new technique provides a minimally invasive approach along with feasibility where the above-mentioned other modalities are contraindicated. The present article presents the novel case of indirect sinus lift with OD concept and simultaneous implant placement using an adjunct PRF (Platelet-rich fibrin).
