Journal Title: Harsukh Educational Charitable Society International Journal of Community Health and Medical Research - Year 2018, Vol 4, Issue 4
Abstract
Background: Dental implants are used to replace both the form and the function of missing teeth. The present study was conducted to compare direct with indirect sinus lift technique for insertion of dental implant. Materials & Methods: The present study was conducted on 28 patients requiring dental implant in posterior maxillary region. Patients were divided into 2 groups of 14 each. In Group I direct sinus lift procedure was performed while in group II, indirect sinus lift procedure was performed. In all patients, pain, gingival inflammation and swelling was assessed at 1st week, 3rd week, 6th week and at 2 months after implant insertion. Results: At 1st week, 12 patients in group I and 10 in group II had pain. At 3rd week, 11 patients in group I and 6 patients in group II had pain. At 6th week, 6 patients in group I and 2 in group II had pain. At 2 months, 2 patients in group I had pain. The difference was significant (P< 0.05). At 1st week, 70% in group I and 65% in group II had gingival inflammation, at 3rd weeks, 42% and 38% had inflammation in group I and group II respectively. At 6th weeks, 25% and 28% had inflammation in group I and group II respectively whereas at 2 months, 8% and 5% had inflammation in group I and group II respectively. The difference was non- significant (P> 0.05). At 1st week, 68% in group I and 60% in group II had swelling, at 3rd weeks, 35% and 26% had swelling in group I and group II respectively. At 6th weeks, 22% and 12% had swelling in group I and group II respectively whereas at 2 months, 5% and 2% had swelling in group I and group II respectively. The difference was non- significant (P> 0.05). Conclusion: Authors found that osteotome technique can be recommended when more than 6 mm of residual bone height is present and an increase of 3-4 mm is expected. In case of more advanced resorption direct method through lateral antrostomy has to be performed.
