Abstract

Long-term edentulism in the maxillary posterior region presents with complications that compromise the quality and quantity of the residual ridge, making the implant placement impossible. Despite of these challenges, prosthetically driven dental implants tend to restore function using various sinus membrane elevation and augmentation techniques. Over the past few years, these techniques have undergone several advancements aiming to overcome the short comings of the conventional techniques and assuring a successful outcome.
