Saline and blood proves beneficial in sinus surgery
Various maxillary sinus elevation techniques using bone grafts and bone substitutes are frequently used to enable the placement of dental implants in the posterior maxilla.

A radiographic stent was modified and used as a surgical stent instead of computer-guided implant surgery to reduce the treatment time. Compared to the stent made with computer -guided surgery, since it is not accurate enough to use until final drilling, it can be used as an marker for initial position.
The purpose of this preliminary study is to investigate the feasibility of no bone graft in maxillary sinus elevation during the implant treatment and to evaluate the amount of bone formation under a sinus membrane tented with implants and filled with saline or venous blood as a graft material in edentulous area of maxillary posterior.
Severe vertical and horizontal bone loss encountered during implantation surgery is one of the main causes that make the treatments difficult. In these bone defects, alveolar bone augmentation and maxillary sinus lifting are essential …
The purpose of this randomized case-control clinical study was to evaluate implant survival and changes in residual alveolar bone height (RABH) after hydraulic sinus membrane elevation with saline as compared to venous blood.
The following study case shows how our Doctors worked with the latest materials and concepts during GBR + CAS Live Surgery Mentorship with Dr. Jim Yeganegi.
The purposes of this study were to assess the dentists’ subjective satisfaction with the crestal approach sinus (CAS) kit, a device for maxillary sinus membrane elevation by the crestal approach using…
The goal of the implant surgeon is to place an implant in the ideal position, that will support a prosthesis with the best long-term prognosis, while managing important anatomical landmarks…
