Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sinus floor elevation is often applied to the molar region of the atrophic maxilla to increase bone mass between the alveolar crest andthe sinus floor. Although autogenous bone graft is, so far, gold standard, limitations of donor site bone volume and post-operativemorbidity could be disadvantages. Thus, artificially synthesized bone substitutes, hydroxyapatite (HA) and tricalcium-phosphate(TCP), might be advantageous useful materials compared to the autogenous bone.We have developed a novel technique of the sinus floor elevation using plate-shaped beta-TCP . In this study, changes of graftedbone volume were quantitatively evaluated with cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) and image analyzing software before and1, 2, and 5 years after the surgery. Ten cases were recruited in this study. The bony windows were prepared on the lateral wall of the sinus and the sinus membrane wascarefully removed and elevated. Subsequently, the TCP plate was inserted and supported with dental implants or micro-screws.Then, CBCT scan was performed to estimate temporal changes of the bone volume before surgery and at the time points of one, two,and five years after the surgery. Digital Imaging and Communication in Medicine (DICOM) files of CBCT were converted intoStereolithography (STL) files, using dedicated image analysis software for bone volume measurement and superimposing image datawith the best fit method. The difference of the image data representing the bone volume before and after the surgery was amalyzedthree-dimensionally, and the rate of change was calculated. This clinical research was approved by Ethics Committee, School ofDentistry, Iwate Medical University, and the patient's consent was also obtained. Ten cases of the sinus floor elevation with plate-shaped beta-TCPs have been performed since 2011. This study consisted of threemen and seven women. The average age of all the patients was 53.3 years old. Bone volume decreased slightly until 2 years after thesurgery and then increased again until 5 years after the surgery. There had no complications concerning the abnormalities of themaxillary sinus since the postoperative to the present, and it passed well. In most cases, newly formed bone in the sinus wasobserved on X-ray photos 6 month after the operation. The good stability of the dental implant, at the second stage surgery, wasconfirmed. TCP plates remained in the same position and achieved the secure space making for long time. Panoramic X-ray andX-ray CT analyses revealed that TCP-plates were resorbed in 5 years post operation in most cases. The results of our study demonstrated that it is possible to evaluate the change of bone volume of the sinus floor elevationquantitatively using the data of the STL form which converted DICOM. In this clinical trial, a new bone formation was observed in theempty space between the TCP plate and the original sinus floor. TCP is a bone-conductive material and might have accelerated boneformation. This newly established method for sinus floor elevation could bring better long-term prognosis.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sinus floor elevation is often applied to the molar region of the atrophic maxilla to increase in bone mass between the alveolar crestand the sinus floor. Although autogenous bone graft is, so far, gold standard, limitations of donor site bone volume and post-operativemorbidity could be disadvantages. Thus, artificially synthesized bone substitutes, hydroxyapatite (HA) and tricalcium-phosphate(TCP), might be considerably useful materials compared to the autogenous bone. We have developed a novel technique of the sinus floor elevation using plate-shaped beta-TCP in order to perform surgery lessinvasively and to reduce the stress of patients. In this study, we evaluated the prognosis of this technique and the newly developedbiomaterials. Thirteen patients were recruited in this study. The diameter and thickness of plate-shaped beta-TCP were approximately 10 mm and2 mm, respectively. The bony windows were prepared on the lateral wall of the sinus and the sinus membrane was carefully removedand elevated. Then the TCP plate was inserted and supported with dental implants or micro-screws. Finally, bio- resorbablemembrane was placed to cover the bony window and to avoid soft tissue infiltration. The panolamic X-ray and the cone beam CT wastaken every year after the operations to evaluate the volume of newly formed bone, the implant stability, and the remodeling of TCPplates. This clinical research was approved by Ethics Committee, School of Dentistry, Iwate Medical University, and the patient'sconsent was also obtained. Thirteen operations of the sinus floor elevation with plate-shaped beta-TCPs have been performed since 2011. This study consistedof three men and ten women. The average age of all the patients was 53.3 years old. Four of those were staged approach and nine ofthose were simultaneous approach. Ten of 13 patients have had no complications concerning the abnormalities of the maxillary sinusfrom the postoperative to the present, and it passed well. In most cases, newly formed bone in the sinus was observed on X-rayphotos 6 month after the operation. The good stability of the dental implant, at the second stage surgery, was confirmed. TCP platesremained in the same position and achieved the secure space making for long time. Panoramic X-ray and X-ray CT analysesrevealed that TCP-plates were resorbed in 5 years post operation in most cases. There were two patients who complain ofuncomfortable feeling and TCP plates were removed surgically. One TCP plate was spontaneously excreted. In this clinical trial, a new bone formation was observed in the empty space between the TCP plate and the original sinus floor. TCP isa bone-conductive material and might have accelerated bone formation. Applying the newly developed technique with artificiallysynthesized bone substitutes could be a useful method to reduce patientsu2019 stress. This newly established sinus floor elevation maybring better long term prognosis.
