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: 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 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).

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: The study found that new bone formation was essentially independent of preoperative bone height, while the smaller the volume of the graft, the greater the amount of new bone formed. Minimizing the augmentation volume may be beneficial for graft healing and stability, especially when using alloplast and xenograft.

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: In this retrospective cohort study, it was found that maxillary tuberosity bone grafts showed better bone vitality and vascularization compared to mandibular retromolar bone grafts in patients undergoing maxillary sinus floor elevation for dental implant placement.

Summary: This study retrospectively analyzed 120 CBCT scans, finding that approximately 37.5% of the scans showed the presence of Underwood septa. 25% showed a complete septum, while only 14 patients had a partial septum. Female patients were more likely to have Underwood septa, and 82.22% of the scans showed a healthy pneumatized maxillary sinus. Interestingly, there was no statistical correlation between Underwood septa and any clinical, radiological, or pathological conditions within the sinus (p > 0.05).

Summary: The study evaluated the success of implants inserted into the distal maxilla augmented via the lateral sinus lift method using a combination of synthetic alloplastic hydroxyapatite and beta-tricalcium phosphate materials. The research confirmed the osteoconductive properties of the materials and demonstrated the synergy of their respective properties in a 3:2 mixture.

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 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: This study evaluated factors related to new bone formation following simultaneous implant placement with transcrestal sinus floor elevation (TSFE). The results showed that implant protrusion lengths, bone grafting, distance and angle between the implant and lateral wall of the sinus significantly influenced new bone formation. Implant shape, perforations, smoking, and diabetes did not have a significant effect.
