  • Title: Maxillary molar sinus floor intrusion at the time of dental extraction.
    Author: Jensen OT, Brownd C, Baer D.
    Journal: J Oral Maxillofac Surg; 2006 Sep; 64(9):1415-9. PubMed ID: 16916678.
    Abstract:
    After extraction of 20 maxillary molar teeth, inter-radicular bone was intruded onto the sinus floor. Sinus perforation was occluded with oxidized cellulose. After 4 months of healing, implants were placed and later restored successfully. The technique increased vertical dimension about 4 mm on average and allowed placement of longer endosseous implants.
