A randomized clinical trial evaluating maxillary sinus augmentation with different particle sizes of demineralized bovine bone mineral: histological and immunohistochemical analysis

Remodelling of sinus bone grafts according to the distance from the native bone: A histomorphometric analysis

“…Sinus lifting procedures are considered a safe and predictable method to gain bone height in the posterior maxilla for dental implant placement (Galindo‐Moreno et al., 2020; de Molon et al., 2019). Autogenous bone grafting has been considered the gold‐standard technique for bone augmentation prior to dental implant placement (Nkenke & Neukam, 2014).…”

“…Diverse bone substitute materials have been used for sinus lifting procedures, with results comparable to those achieved when using autologous bone grafts (Franceschetti et al., 2020; Galindo‐Moreno et al., 2020; Liu et al., 2020). Among those materials, anorganic bovine bone (ABB) is a well‐documented option and one of the most used bone substitute materials for sinus lifting procedures (Dos Anjos et al., 2016; de Molon et al., 2019; Pignaton et al., 2019). ABB particles are biocompatible and present osteoconductive characteristics, providing a scaffold for bone formation (Araujo, Liljenberg, & Lindhe, 2010; Liu et al., 2020; Tadjoedin, de Lange, Bronckers, Lyaruu, & Burger, 2003).…”

A Prosthetic and Surgical Approach for Full-Arch Rehabilitation in Atrophic Maxilla Previously Affected by Peri-Implantitis

“…The surgical access respected the position of implant placement planning and the maxillary sinus anatomy [27,28]. After careful sinus membrane elevation, the maxillary sinuses were filled with a mixture of L-PRF and large particles [29,30] (1-2 mm) of DBBM (Bio-Oss, Geistlich Pharma AG, Wolhusen, Switzerland). Membranes of L-PRF were also used to cover the lateral window of the sinus cavity.…”

“…On the other hand, L-PRF seems to allow early placement of dental implant in maxillary sinuses [27] and increased bone formation when combined with demineralized bovine bone mineral (DBBM) [28]. In order to minimize patient discomfort, morbidity, costs, and healing time, bone substitute materials such as demineralized bovine bone mineral (DBBM) have been extensively used to fill maxillary sinuses in atrophic upper jaw with high success rate and low morbidity to the patient [29,30]. This approach permits implant placement with a sufficient length allowing proper osseointegration and anchorage of the implant.…”
