Traditional approaches that decrease intraoperative bleeding into the surgical field include vessel preservation using multiple bony windows or neutralizing the vessel at the surgical site. Unfortunately, these methods are technique sensitive, time intensive, and may lead to hemosinus and graft loss. The variable distance from the crest of the alveolar ridge and vessel diameter further complicates pre-operative planning. This paper discusses the anatomical features of the alveolar antral artery, techniques for clinical assessment, and current management strategies. We then describe a novel protocol to manage the alveolar antral artery in sinus lift procedures via tamponade of the vessel at a proximal site. This method is faster than those described in the literature, does not require any additional equipment or expertise, and aims to improve long-term graft predictability by decreasing the risk of sinus membrane perforation. The alveolar antral artery is an under-reported source of surgical complications and warrants further research.展开更多

The aim of the study was to determine the indication-range and success-rate of this novelty procedure. Materials & Methods: Between 2007 and 2009, 404 patients were treated by 6 oral surgeons of different experience-levels with the tHUCSL in 446 sinussites. 637 implants were inserted and then prosthodontically treated and observed and documented until December 2011. The subantral space was augmented via the 3 mm transcrestal approach with an augmentation volume of 1.9 ccm (+/? 0.988 ccm) and an augmentation height of 10.7 mm (+/? 2.85 mm). Results: Within the survey-period 15 (2.35%) of the 637 inserted implants were lost, mostly before implant loading due to postsurgical infection and nonosseointegration in the augmentation site. 1 implant was lost after implant loading and prosthetic treatment within 1 year after loading. The overall success rate with functional implants in site is 97.65% evenly distributed among the participating surgeons. 86% of the patients were observed with no postsurgical swelling and 87% no postsurgical pain. Discussion: The results suggest the tHUCSL to be a safe minimal-invasive alternative to traditional lateral approach and transcrestal osteotome sinuslift-procedures applicable to all anatomical situations.展开更多

Methods:60 patients in CBCT database were selected to measure the available bone height (sinus ridge distance) and available bone width ( the proximal and distal middle distance) of the missing tooth area of the second premolars, the first molars and the second molars in panoramic view and cross-section view respectively, and the measurement results of different tooth positions were statistically analyzed. Results:there was significant difference in bone width (near and far middle distance) between CBCT panoramic view and cross section view, and the measured value of cross section view was smaller than that of panoramic view, but there was no significant difference in the available bone height (sinus ridge distance) and the measured values between different observers (P>0.05).There were also statistical differences among the measured values of different tooth positions (P<0.05), among which the proximal and distal middle distance of the first premolars was the smallest, the sinus ridge distance was the largest, and the sinus ridge distance of the second molars was the smallest. Conclusion:CBCT can assist in the measurement of bone mass in the area of absence of tooth,which is of great significance to the development of the treatment plan of the oral cavity.展开更多
