Abstract:
Sinus floor elevation is a clinical procedure to allow implantation in the posterior maxillary areas, in cases of reduced alveolar height. Numerous techniques and materials have been described during the last 2 decades. The aim of this article is to present an innovative technique for sinus lifting procedure. The use of a titanium mesh allows better stability of grafted materials and a more predictable result.
