Graft bone resorption in maxillary sinuses is influenced by patient factors and anatomy, while implant bone loss depends on prosthetic connections and patient habits. Both decrease over time, with MBL being time-dependent.

Area of Science:

  • Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
  • Dental Implantology
  • Bone Grafting

Background:

  • Maxillary sinus augmentation is a common procedure to enable dental implant placement.
  • Understanding bone resorption and marginal bone loss is crucial for long-term implant success.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate graft bone resorption (GR) and marginal bone loss (MBL) around implants in grafted maxillary sinuses.
  • To assess the impact of prosthetic connections and clinical factors on GR and MBL at 6 and 18 months postloading.

Main Methods:

  • 254 implants in 150 grafted sinuses were analyzed.
  • Measurements of GR and MBL were taken at 6 and 18 months postloading.
  • Statistical analysis used a general linear model to assess patient age, gender, smoking, periodontal disease, implantation timing, and abutment length.

Real-Time Dynamic Navigation System for the Precise Quad-Zygomatic Implant Placement in a Patient with a Severely Atrophic Maxilla

Published on: October 18, 2021

Main Results:

  • Graft bone resorption (GR) was significantly affected by smoking, remnant bone height, graft dimensions, gender, and age, decreasing over time.
  • Marginal bone loss (MBL) was influenced by prosthetic connection type, implantation timing, and abutment length.
  • MBL increased with longer follow-up, older patient age, and in smokers.

Conclusions:

  • Graft resorption is dependent on sinus anatomy and not significantly affected by time after 6 months.
  • Implant marginal bone loss is time-dependent and linked to modifiable clinical decisions and patient habits.
