Lateral sinus floor augmentation with cerabone® with 4-year follow-up

Lateral sinus floor augmentation with cerabone® with 4-year follow-up

Dr. Vladimir Garcia Lozada

The patient presented with an initial residual bone height of the sinus floor of 5.10 mm. Using the lateral approach in a one-stage procedure, the bone volume dimension was augmented with cerabone® which allowed for an efficient filling of the elevated maxillary sinus in conjunction with implant placement. The four-years result demonstrates a stable clinical situation, in terms of augmented hard tissue and implant efficient stability.
