Each group was further divided into four subgroups (<i>n</i> = 11) based on the type of contamination medium used. Healing abutments were tightened onto the implant fixtures using a torque of 25 Ncm with the designated medium, followed by retightening after a 10-min interval. After a two-week incubation period, reverse torque values (RTVs) were recorded using a digital torque gauge. To assess differences between the implant systems within the same medium, as well as differences between the medium types within the same implant system, the Welch two-sample <i>t</i>-test was employed.

In contrast, for MIS C1 implants, RTVs exceeded 25 Ncm in the saliva and blood contamination groups; however, the presence of chlorhexidine reduced the RTVs. A comparative analysis revealed that the C1 conical connection required significantly higher RTVs than the Seven internal hex system (coefficient = 3.318). No significant differences were observed between implant systems in the control and chlorhexidine groups. However, the C1 system required higher RTVs than the Seven system in the presence of saliva (<i>p</i> = 0.0006) and blood (<i>p</i> = 0.00009).

However, various medical conditions, local factors, and surgical complexities can significantly influence the outcomes. This article delves into the implications of systemic conditions such as smoking, diabetes, osteoporosis, antiresorptive and antiangiogenic medications, radiotherapy, immunocompromised states, cardiovascular diseases, chronic alcoholism, and oxidative stress on sinus floor elevation and associated dental implant placements. Each condition presents unique challenges and necessitates tailored clinical considerations to mitigate risks and enhance surgical success. A comprehensive pre-operative assessment is essential, including detailed patient history and radiographic evaluation. Local conditions affecting the maxillary sinus, such as sinusitis, require careful examination and possible otolaryngologist consultation. The article discusses a standardized Digital Surgical Planning (DSP) protocol involving CBCT imaging, intraoral scans, virtual diagnostic wax-ups, and guided implant placement to optimize surgical planning and outcomes. Surgical techniques for lateral window antrostomy are examined, including flap design, window size and location, and piezoelectric and rotary instrumentation. Subsequent regenerative procedures involve meticulous membrane elevation and particulate graft placement, with considerations for graft material and technique to ensure stability and volume retention. Post-operative care, encompassing antibiotic prophylaxis, corticosteroid use, and decongestants, is outlined to prevent infections and manage edema. Conclusively, the article stresses the necessity for implantologists to be proficient in various techniques and make evidence-based decisions tailored to individual patient needs, ensuring optimal implant therapy outcomes. The lateral window approach remains a cornerstone of regenerative dental procedures, maintaining its significance through evolving methodologies and clinical advances. The lateral window sinus elevation procedure has demonstrated consistent success as a pre-prosthetic surgical intervention for over four decades, supported by multiple reviews. Initially a hospital-based procedure requiring autogenous bone harvesting, it has evolved into a minimally invasive, office-based procedure without the need for donor bone. Smaller access windows and flaps have further reduced morbidity. Despite the emergence of less invasive techniques such as the transcrestal approach and the use of tilted or short implants, the lateral window procedure remains relevant due to its unique advantages: Provides greater access to overcome obstacles like septa. Facilitates single-surgery management of multiple implant sites. Remains applicable regardless of residual crestal bone height. Allows intraoperative management of complications such as membrane perforations.</p>","PeriodicalId":50679,"journal":{"name":"Clinical Implant Dentistry and Related Research","volume":"27 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2025-05-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/cid.70007","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143925999","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
