Maxillary sinus grafting for totally and partially edentulous patients

M S Block et al. J Am Dent Assoc. 1993 May.

Abstract

The presence of the maxillary sinus and lack of adequate bone to stabilize the implants could make traditional implant placement impossible. The solution includes grafting bone to the posterior maxilla to provide adequate bone support for implant integration and long-term survival.
