Abstract :

The maxilla has one of the least dense bone masses in the oral cavity and is composed of porous bone. Due to considerable alveolar bone resorption brought on by periodontal disease-induced tooth loss, there is an emphasis on bone reduction in both height and width. Pneumatization of the maxillary sinus, post-extraction bone resorption, and low-quality remaining alveolar bone all contribute to the difficulty in bone remodelling. Indirect sinus augmentation is an effective solution for this problem. This case report presents the rehabilitation of maxillary right first molar by using indirect sinus lift with implant placement where the bone height and bone width was compromised.
