Summary: This report discusses the drift of maxillary antral pseudocysts after maxillary sinus floor augmentation with simultaneous implant placement using osteotome sinus floor elevation. 3D Slicer software was used to measure the pseudocysts and maxilla for accurate implant placement, and follow-up visits were conducted at 6, 12, and 22 months. No adverse effects were observed during or after surgery, and all implants showed successful osseointegration without mobility. The pseudocyst initially moved posteriorly and laterally from its preoperative position near the anterior medial maxillary sinus at 6 months, returned to its original position at 12 months, but then remigrated to the posterolateral position at 22 months. The volume of the pseudocyst decreased from 3.795 mm³ preoperatively to 2.370 mm³, 3.439 mm³, and 2.930 mm³ at 6, 12, and 22 months after surgery, respectively. The changes in pseudocyst drift and volume did not negatively affect the implants significantly, possibly due to cystic attachment and the recurrence of multiple pseudocysts at different locations. Appropriate treatment planning can help avoid the risks associated with pseudocyst changes.

Summary: The study aims to describe the histological events following maxillary sinus floor elevation when the elevated and undetached sinus mucosa are in close proximity or in contact with each other. Histological analysis of 152 elevated maxillary sinuses from 76 rabbits was conducted. The results showed that the width of the pseudostratified columnar epithelium and the distance between the two layers of the elevated and undetached sinus mucosae were measured at different standardized positions. Adhesion of the mucosa was observed in 31 sites, with 12 sites in the proximity stage showing shortened cilia and interlinked epithelial layers, as well as hyperactivity of goblet cells. Fusion and synechia stages were also observed.

Summary: This study analyzed volume changes in the lateral window maxillary sinus floor elevation region using Minics software. The results showed that the volume of the elevation site reduced 6 months after surgery. It suggests that the volume of the elevation site should be enlarged as much as possible during the operation to prevent volume shrinkage.

Summary: The study evaluated the clinical outcome of the transalveolar approach with the small segmentation method for inclined maxillary sinus floor elevation. The results showed promising results with successful osseointegration of implants and significant bone height changes achieved using this method.

Summary: This review article aims to synthesize existing information in the specialized literature regarding the correlations between peri-implant diseases and maxillary sinusitis. The included studies reported a positive correlation between maxillary sinusitis and peri-implant infectious diseases, as well as other pathologies such as abscesses and foreign body reactions. Therefore, preventing infectious peri-implant diseases is crucial to avoid these complications.

Summary: This study introduced a minimally invasive lateral approach technique for maxillary sinus floor elevation (MSFE) with simultaneous implant placement. The surgical outcomes were positive with no failed implants during the follow-up period, indicating that this approach is both feasible and safe for this procedure.

Summary: Smoking habit, thin sinus membrane, irregular, narrow tapered, and tapering sinus contours, and presence of septa may increase the risk of sinus membrane perforation during lateral window maxillary sinus floor elevation (LSFE).

Summary: In this retrospective study, we found that transcrestal sinus floor elevation with simultaneous implant placement is a predictable treatment option for atrophic maxilla. Implant losses were mainly observed before or at abutment connection in the early stage, and after functional loading in the late stage. Early implant loss was associated with the use of grafting materials and less clinical experience of the surgeon, while late implant loss was linked to low residual bone height, male sex, and certain implant brands.

Summary: This study evaluated patient-reported outcomes and complication rates after maxillary sinus floor elevation, showing a gradual decrease in postoperative pain, low discomfort level, and a high willingness to repeat the same surgical procedure among patients. Swelling and ecchymosis were experienced by some patients, but with a low complication rate.

Summary: The study found a positive correlation between sinus width and graft bone resorption, as well as a significant positive correlation between sinus angle and graft bone resorption. Therefore, anatomical factors of the maxillary sinus have an influence on the linear change of bone grafts after transcrestal sinus floor elevation.

Summary: This study retrospectively evaluated whether repositioning the bone window leads to a better outcome of three-dimensional sinus augmentation in lateral sinus floor elevation (LSFE) with simultaneous implant placement. The results showed that at the 6-month follow-up, the reduction rates of apical bone height (ABH), endo-sinus bone gain (ESBG), and buccal bone height (BBH) were significantly lower in the test group compared to the control group. Moreover, the test group showed better three-dimensional augmentation stability on the buccal side and facilitated recovery of the lateral antrostomy defect.

Summary: This study compared two beta-tricalcium phosphates with different particle sizes in human maxillary sinuses lifting, and evaluated osteoblast precursor cells and vascular formation using immunolabeling. The results showed that the evaluated bone substitutes had suitable outcomes for bone regeneration.

Summary: This retrospective study compared the volumetric changes in hard and soft tissues between antral pseudocyst removal and retainment before maxillary sinus floor augmentation and immediate implant placement. The results showed that the removal of the pseudocyst resulted in higher bone graft volumetric stability and fewer postoperative complications.

Summary: The study found that new bone formation in maxillary sinus floor augmentation follows a gradient from the native bone of the sinus floor towards the apical part of the augmentation area, with the distance to primordial bone playing a critical role in bone regeneration. This gradient is particularly pronounced in the molar region, showing a steeper decline in new bone formation compared to the premolar region.

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate radiographic outcomes of implants after osteotome sinus floor elevation (OSFE) and identified implant length, grafting, residual bone height, and sinus membrane thickness as predictors of vertical bone gain (VBG). Tooth position and implant length were predictors of marginal bone loss (MBL).
