Outcomes of Different Bone Graft Combinations for Maxillary Sinus Augmentation Procedure

간략 요약

This study investigates the outcomes of a surgical procedure that is performed to increase bone support at a future implant site on the upper back jaw area. This procedure requires placing bone graft material and/or substitutes into the maxillary sinus. The average healing time for the graft is about 6 months. Then, the site will be ready for dental implant. The study will compare healing outcomes of two types of bone graft mixtures used on the same patient (right and left upper jaw regions). The outcomes will be evaluated through clinical examination but also by studying the quality of the tissue through tissue biopsies obtained from grafted sites.
