Summary:
Placement of endosseous implants in the posterior atrophic maxilla is often restricted because of a lack of supporting alveolar bone. To overcome this anatomic limitation, sinus lifting has become a common surgical procedure in oral implant treatment. Since the initial application of sinus lift augmentation and implant placement in the mid-1970s, many articles have been published describing predictable techniques with reliable long-term results. These procedures have been used for multiple implant restorations. Single-tooth implant–supported restorations are an acceptable restorative option.In situations where insufficient alveolar bone remains for a single maxillary implant, the sinus lift procedure can be used.

Maxillary Sinus Membrane Repair: Update on Technique for Large and Complete Perforations
Maxillary sinus membrane perforation is the most common complication that occurs with sinus elevation augmentation surgery. A technique using a slow resorbing type I collagen membrane for repair of large and complete sinus membrane perforations is described. The biocompatibility and semirigid structural integrity of this membrane, along with external tack fixation, allows for optimal membrane stabilization and maintenance. (Implant Dent 2008;17:24–31)
