Book excerpt: Background: Lateral bony window coverage utilizing collagen membranes in maxillary sinus floor augmentation by lateral approach delivers favorable results (Pjetursson et al. 2008). The piezoelectric approach allows for repositioning the sinus bony wall (Choung et al.1997), nevertheless data is scarce on the efficacy compared to collagen membrane coverage. The preliminary clinical results of an ongoing prospective, randomized, controlled clinical, radiographical and histological trial are presented. Aims: To demonstrate the non-inferiority of bony wall repositioning compared to collagen membrane coverage in maxillary sinus flooraugmentation. Primary outcome parameter: Histological evaluation. Secondary outcome parameters: duration of surgery and window preparation, perforations, patient morbidity.Materials and methods: 8 healthy patients with at least one missing maxillary premolar or molar with not more than 5mm bone height below the sinus weretreated at the Department of Periodontology, Semmelweis University, Budapest, Hungary by lateral maxillary sinus flooraugmentation. Patients were randomized in two groups: Test (4 patients): lateral sinus window preparation with a piezoelectric device (NSK Variosurg 3), sinus bony wall repositioning. Control (4 patients) lateral sinus window preparation with rotary burs at 400 rpm, bony window covered by resorbable collagen membrane (Botiss Colprotect). Hard tissue grafting was performed using a particulatexenogenic material (Botiss Cerabone) in both groups. Following parameters were registered: duration of surgery and windowpreparation in minutes; percentage of sinus membrane perforations, postoperative patient complaints subjectively evaluated by visual analogue scale, objectively evaluated by number of non-steroid inflammatory drugs taken.Results: Initial healing was uneventful, primary wound healing occurred in all cases, no postoperative infections were observed. Duration of surgery was 50.5u00b19.6 min in test compared to 56.50u00b114.1 min in control. Duration of window preparation was 5.0u00b10.8 min in test compared to 4.8u00b11.7 min in control. Percentage of sinus membrane perforations was 50% in test compared to 50% in control. Postoperative patient complaints subjectively evaluated by visual analogue scale was 24.5u00b130.7 in test compared to 42.3u00b125.6 in control on the day of surgery, 13.5u00b121.4 in test compared to 30.5u00b125.1 in control 1 day postoperatively, 12.5u00b117.7 in test compared to 12.5u00b13.5 in control 2 days postoperatively. Postoperative patient complaints objectively evaluated by number of non-steroid inflammatory drugs taken was 1.5u00b10.6 in test compared to 2u00b10 in control on the day of surgery, 1u00b11.2 in test compared to 0.75u00b10.5 in control 1 day postoperatively, 0u00b10 in test compared to 0.5u00b10.7 in control 2 days postoperatively.Conclusions: According to the preliminary clinical results of the ongoing prospective, randomized, controlled clinical, radiographical and histological trial, duration of surgery, duration of window preparation, percentage of sinus membrane perforations were comparable in test and control. Subjective and objective postoperative complaint evaluation showed more favorable outcomes in the test group, indicating less patient morbidity following piezoelectric sinus window preparation and bony wall repositioning.
