Localized management of sinus floor (LMSF) achieves implant placement and sinus lifting simultaneously. LMSF is a further application of the principles of the
edentulous ridge expansion (ERE) technique. It comprises the
dissection of a partial-thickness flap, the
buccal expansion of the residual alveolar bone, and the
fracture and elevation of the sinus floor with
simultaneous implant placement. The selected patients, who showed no signs of sinus pathology, exhibited insufficient vertical alveolar bone dimensions for the placement of dental implants with the traditional technique. The minimal residual alveolar bone height was between 5 and 7 mm. Based on the criteria established by Albrektsson and his coworkers in 1986, the success rate of the 499 implants placed with the LMSF was
97.5%.(Code by
Dr.Buschi et al;1998.Three hundred three patients were treated with 499 implants placed using the LMSF between April 1988 and December 1993)
