Innovations in Treating the Resorbed Posterior Maxilla
As research advances in the treatment of the resorbed posterior maxilla, new techniques and innovations are being adopted to address this clinical challenge. While the previous edition of this book offered detailed insights into the grafting materials and procedures available at that time, this completely revised version looks ahead with new treatment strategies, some of which eliminate the need for grafting altogether.
The book reviews the established lateral window approach for sinus elevation and grafting while also introducing various techniques for transcrestal access to the sinus, with or without grafting materials.
One section is dedicated entirely to different types of implants and implant placement techniques, many of which are specifically designed to avoid sinus elevation. In addition to clinical case studies and detailed descriptions of surgical procedures, this book discusses the science of bone formation and highlights how ongoing research is bringing us closer to the ultimate goal of using tissue engineering to fully regenerate new teeth.
