Maxillary sinus floor elevation using a buccal bony window technique

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This clinical trial aims to evaluate different surgical methods for maxillary sinus floor elevation in patients with varying residual bone heights. Investigators will recruit 60 participants who require this procedure and will utilize a buccal bony window approach during surgery. The study will involve collecting and analyzing CBCT data to determine the most effective surgical technique for each patient's specific condition. By comparing outcomes from different methods, the trial seeks to optimize surgical strategies for better patient results.
