Comparison of Piezosurgery and Conventional Rotative Instruments in Direct Sinus Lifting

Abstract: Sinus lifting procedure performed with Piezosurgery causes less pain and swelling postoperatively compared with conventional technique. Patients' daily life activities and experience about the operation are not affected from the surgical technique.

“…3 This situation was reported to occur in about 13-63.8% of the sinuses analysed. 9,32 Although there are no significant differences between piezoelectric surgery and conventional rotary instruments in terms of visibility, surgical time, membrane perforation, and patient expectations, 35,36 the use of piezoelectric surgery may be particularly recommended for sinuses with a higher gauge PSAA anastomosis.…”

Romeo et al 36,45 in another in vitro study, compared the Er:YAG laser, a Piezoelectric device (Mectron), a high-speed handpiece using Lindemann burs and round diamonds, and a low-speed handpiece using round stainless steel burs.…”
