Abstract

A review of the literature, provided by a MEDLINE search from 1980 through June 1999, was performed. This study was screened that 649 patients received 679 sinus lift grafts in which 2056 implants were placed. The types of grafts in sinus augmentation were autogenous bone, corticocancellous block bone, allogenic bone, and a variety of alloplastic materials. Results of these grafts are presented. The most frequent complications was the infection of maxillary sinus. Long-term follow-up is necessary to advance the sinus elevation and to support posterior maxillary restorations.
