The Prevalence of Surgical Complications of the Sinus Graft Procedure and Their Impact on Implant Survival

Abstract

Intraoperative complications may lead to postoperative complications. Surgical complications did not significantly influence implant survival.

Association between maxillary sinus fungus ball and sinus bone grafting with deproteinized bovine bone substitutes: a case-control study

“…15 Thus far, to the best of our knowledge, the development of postoperative maxillary sinusitis has mainly been reported following sinus lift procedures using allografts, xenografts, and alloplasts. [12][13][14][15][16][17] Interestingly, the few cases of acute sinus infection related to autogenous sinus bone graft were associated with a simultaneous alveolar onlay bone graft. 9 The most probable primum movens mechanism leading to the development of maxillary sinusitis is the violation of the sinus membrane, which together with specific local rhinosinus predisposing factors (e.g., nasal septum deviations, inferior turbinate enlargement, nasal polyposis, chronic rhinosinusitis, allergic rhinitis, decreased patency of the osteomeatal complex) allows for bacterial and/or fungal proliferation.…”

“…In most cases, complications resolve with no need for further surgery and with no substantial impact on implant survival; however, in some cases, complications may lead to complete loss of the graft material, thus compromising the subsequent implant-supported dental restoration. [8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17] Although the literature contains many reports describing the use of a myriad of bone substitutes, including allografts, xenografts, and alloplasts, autologous bone graft has been shown to be the only "material" to possess the three fundamental properties …”

[18][19][20][21] For this reason, autologous bone graft remains the gold standard for biologic management of alveolar ridge augmentation despite the risk of donor site morbidity and graft resorbtion.…”

Relative area measurement of maxillary sinus by computed tomography

“…Sinusite. Tomografia computadorizada por raios X. in order to avoid later infection with loss of the graft and/or osseointegration of the implant not occurring [17][18][19] . The maxillary sinuses may be affected by pathologies of traumatic origin, neoplasias and particularly by infections arising in the nasal or oral cavities with dental structures and their periodontium.…”

Nanoengineered implant as a new platform for regenerative nanomedicine using 3D well-organized human cell spheroids

“…A sinus lift is required to place a dental implant to provide the needed space for introducing additional bone in that area. 19,20 4) Alveolar ridge augmentations: these consist of surgical bone grafting procedures for patients suffering from bone loss in the upper jaw. The number of patients in this field amounts to approximately 4.5 million per annum worldwide.…”
