ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying a new method called the hydrodynamic piezoelectric technique to help place dental implants in the upper jaw, specifically when there isn’t enough bone under the sinus (a space in the cheek area). This technique gently lifts the sinus membrane with more control and less risk of tearing than traditional methods, which can mean less pain and swelling after the procedure. The study will compare this new approach to the usual method, called the osteotome technique, to see which one works better and is safer for patients.

People who might join the study are adults who need dental implants in the back upper jaw but don’t have enough bone for the implant to fit properly—specifically those with 5 to 7 millimeters of bone height in that area. Participants should have good oral hygiene and no active sinus infections or health problems that could affect healing. If you join, you can expect a minimally invasive procedure that lifts the sinus membrane and places the implant at the same time, potentially resulting in less discomfort afterward. This study could help improve implant treatments for people with similar dental needs in the future.

Eligibility criteria

• Inclusion Criteria:
• • Patients with edentulous free end or bounded posterior maxilla that require implant supported restoration.
• • Patients indicated to internal sinus lifting, where insufficient residual alveolar bone height from the alveolar crest to the floor of the maxillary sinus is found.
• • Patients with residual alveolar bone height that ranges from 5-7 mm according to the tomographic radiographic examination.
• • A good standard of oral hygiene.
• Exclusion criteria:
• • Patients with residual alveolar bone height less than 5 mm according to the tomographic radiographic examination.
• • Patients with residual alveolar bone height more than 8 mm according to the tomographic radiographic examination, which is not indicated to sinus lifting.
• • Patient with active sinus infection or sinus pathology.
• • History of Oral or intravenous bisphosphonate therapy or any treatments with other medications that may interfere with bone metabolism within the past 12 months.
• • Heavy smokers.
• • Medically compromised patients that are burdened with systemic conditions that contradicts implant placement and interfere with wound healing.
• Exclusion Criteria:
• • -
