Resumen
GONZALEZ LAGUNAS, J.. Alternatives to maxillary sinus elevation: short implants. Rev Esp Cirug Oral y Maxilofac [online]. 2008, vol.30, n.6, pp.403-411. ISSN 2173-9161.
Poor bone quality, extreme bony resorption and a pneumatized mqxillary sinus are a severe Challenger for reconstruction of the atrophic edentuous posterior maxilla. Sinus lift is probably the gold standard for Management of that area. Short implants (<10mm) have traditionally been associated with lower survival rates. The introduction of new surfaces and designs indicate that this type of implants can adequately support dental restorations. We present the technique of installation of sinterised porous dental implants together with an update on the behaviour of short implants.
