What this Trial Is About
The sinus lift technique through alveolar crest Osseodensification is conservative, minimally invasive, and minimally traumatic, utilizing hydropneumatic counterclockwise rotating instruments to lift the maxillary sinus floor without touching the Schneiderian membrane, thereby minimizing the risk of perforation. In contrast, the internal sinus lift technique utilizing osteotomes to raise the Schneiderian membrane eliminated hammering, making the technique more patient-friendly, with the placement of a graft biomaterial around the implant. The challenge in this technique was the availability of \> 5mm residual bone height preventing membrane perforation and low primary implant stability. Consequently, the investigator aims to compare the efficacy and clinical outcomes of Osseodensification and Osteotome internal sinus lifting after delayed implant placement by assessing bone gain and bone density around implants radiographically, the primary stability of the implants clinically, and patient satisfaction.
