    Author: Jin PY, Lin Y, Qiu LX, Li JH.
    Journal: Zhonghua Kou Qiang Yi Xue Za Zhi; 2005 Nov; 40(6):441-4. PubMed ID: 16329820.
    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: To determine the long-term clinical outcome and predictability of the maxillary sinus augmentation procedure. METHODS: Seventy-four patients underwent 100 sinus bone graft procedure and 206 implants were placed. The patients were followed up for 1-9 years, with an average of 3.46 +/- 1.65 years after implant placement. RESULTS: The 5-year cumulative survival rate (CSR) of implants was 92.28%. Only 8 implants failed and no sinusitis occurred. CONCLUSIONS: Sinus bone graft is an adjunctive procedure with a predictable outcome in patients with severely atrophied posterior maxilla.
