Abstract

|
|
Placement of endosseous implants in the atrophic maxilla is often limited because of a lack of supporting bone. A technique to augment the floor of the maxillary sinus with graft material and simple placement of endosseous implant seem to be a reliable treatment modality. But there are some morbidity and complication of augmentation of the maxillary sinus floor and simple placement of endosseous implant.
We experienced 4 cases that developed postoperative maxillary sinusitis after placement of endosseous dental implant. Recurrent maxillary sinusitis following bone added osteotome sinus floor elevation and simultaneous placement of endosseous dental implants in the maxilla developed in one patient. Maxillary sinusitis occurred in three patients after sinus bone grafting using lateral window approach and simultaneous placement of endosseous dental implants. Symptoms of transient maxillary sinusitis were observed in all patients. These symptoms were successfully treated with decongestants, antibiotics, incision and drainage.
This article provides an overview of the management of the postoperative maxillary sinusitis related to dental implant surgery and case reports.
