Brief summary describing the background
and objectives of the trial
|
An inadequate bone volume and a low bone density, i.e. quality D4 bone in the posterior maxilla is a frequent anatomical restriction for implant placement. The loss of bone can strongly influence the choice of the most appropriate rehabilitation in edentulous patients. Maxillary sinus grafting appears to be the most predictable hard tissue augmentation technique in implant dentistry and long-term implant survival in the grafted maxillary sinus is comparable to non-grafted sites but necessitates additional surgery, cost, and time. In addition, patients may decline the procedure due to added risk and morbidity (Harry 2011).Short implant placement in the posterior mandible is well documented in the literatures as successful treatment modality for rehabilitation of edentulous patients. Short-length (8-mm) dental implants offer an effective treatment alternative to bone grafting and nerve lateralization for the height-deficient atrophic posterior mandible(Grant, Pancko, and Kraut 2009, Guljé et al. 2013). The aim of this study is to evaluate the stability of short implants in the posterior maxilla and the posterior mandible using the Periotest.
