Pneumatization of the maxillary sinus secondary to posterior maxillary tooth loss is an extremely common finding. Significant atrophy of the maxilla prevents implant placement in this region. For several decades, sinus augmentation has been used to develop these sites for dental implant placement. The main techniques for increasing the vertical bone height of the posterior maxilla are the transalveolar and lateral antrostomy approaches. The clinical and radiographic examinations dictate the appropriate method for each clinical situation. Both techniques have been shown to have high success rates. However, practitioners must be aware of potential complications and how to address them.
上颌后牙缺失继发的上颌窦气化是一种极为常见的现象。上颌骨的显著萎缩妨碍了该区域种植体的植入。几十年来，上颌窦提升术一直被用于开发这些部位以进行牙种植体植入。增加上颌后部垂直骨高度的主要技术是经牙槽嵴和外侧上颌窦开窗入路。临床和影像学检查决定了针对每种临床情况的合适方法。这两种技术均已显示出较高的成功率。然而，从业者必须了解潜在的并发症以及如何处理它们。
