About this study

Official title: Transcrestal Sinus Lift Using Osseodensification Versus Lateral Window Technique With Simultaneous Implant Placement

The aim of this study is to evaluate the transcrestal sinus lift using Osseodensification versus lateral window technique with simultaneous implant placement.

Read the detailed description

In Group 1, crestal maxillary sinus floor elevation will be done using Osseodensification. An incision will be made near the palate, and a conservative flap will be elevated. Osseodensification burs will be used to create an osteotomy and elevate the sinus membrane gradually. The osteotomy will be filled with bone graft, and the implant will be inserted.

In Group 2, lateral maxillary sinus floor elevation will be performed by creating a bony window in the lateral wall of the sinus. The sinus floor will be carefully elevated using sinus elevation curettes. If there's a membrane perforation, a collagen membrane will be applied. Bone substitute material will be packed into the sinus, and a resorbable membrane will be placed over the window before suturing.

Both groups will use Nanobone as the graft material.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Crestal Maxillary Sinus Floor Elevation using OsseodensificationProcedure or surgery

    Patients will be prepared for surgery with local anesthesia and thorough oral cavity disinfection. A full thickness crestal incision will be made slightly towards the palate to enhance the possibility of achieving primary wound closure. A conservative flap will be raised, extending slightly beyond the alveolar crest, to minimize flap-related issues. After preparing the osteotomy site using Densah burs and elevating the sinus to the desired height, the implant will be inserted into the osteotomy site.

  • Lateral Maxillary Sinus Floor ElevationProcedure or surgery

    A crestal incision with an anterior vertical releasing incision exposes the sinus's lateral wall. A mucoperiosteal flap is carefully reflected, revealing the sinus. A bony window is created using a Piezoelectric device, and after elevation, the sinus floor is carefully lifted with various curettes. Implant osteotomies follow standard placement protocol, with precautions against sinus membrane perforation. Nanobone is used as graft material, mixed with saline and gently packed into the sinus. A resorbable membrane is placed on the window's outer surface, secured with circumferential resorbable sutures, and the flap is sutured for closure.

Study groups in NCT06126536
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Group 1: Crestal Maxillary Sinus Floor Elevation using Osseodensification:ExperimentalA crestal incision will be made towards the palate for better wound closure. A conservative flap will be raised, extending beyond the alveolar crest to minimize complications. In cases with 4-6mm ridge height and a need for 3mm vertical depth, a narrow densifying bur will be used, followed by wider burs to elevate the sinus membrane. The Densah® Bur will compact graft material to lift the membrane without penetrating the sinus floor. The osteotomy will be filled with bone graft substitute, and the final bur will apically propel the graft for vertical augmentation. Implant placement follows confirmation via radiography.
Receives: Procedure: Crestal Maxillary Sinus Floor Elevation using Osseodensification
Group 2: Lateral Maxillary Sinus Floor ElevationExperimentalIn the Lateral technique, a crestal incision and mucoperiosteal flap will expose the sinus's lateral wall. A bony window is created, and when removable, sinus elevation curettes are used to elevate the sinus floor cautiously. Membrane perforations are covered with a resorbable collagen membrane if needed. Implant osteotomies follow standard protocol. Graft material mixed with saline is gently packed into the sinus to achieve the desired bone height. A resorbable membrane is placed on the window's outer surface, and the flap is sutured for primary closure.
Receives: Procedure: Lateral Maxillary Sinus Floor Elevation

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Bone height gain (time frame: Immediate post-operative, 6 Months post-operative). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT06126536, which also lists 10 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
