Melillo describes replacing the implant at site 26 after three months but considers healing after sinus elevation favorable. The three-year follow-up prompts a discussion of the radiographic halo and implant morphology.

Three-year follow-up. Healing is excellent.

Controllo a 3 anni. La guarigione è stupenda
Crestal sinus lifts with the Magnetic Mallet at sites 24 and 26.

Rialzo crestale con MM su 24 e 26
After three months, the implant at site 26 had failed to integrate. The sinus augmentation was healing well, however, so I replaced it with another implant. At three months, the augmented sinus at site 24 already appeared fully healed.

Dopo 3 mesi l’impianto 26 non si integra, ma il rialzo stava guarendo bene e quindi lo sostistusco con un altro impianto. Mentre a 3 mesi il seno sul 24 sembra già completamente guarito
May I ask you something? I do not want to mention brand names, but I have often observed this line around these implants, almost as though they were not fully osseointegrated.

Ti posso chiedere una csa? Mon voglio fare nomi commerciali ma io ho riscontrato spesso sta linea in questi impianti come se non fossero perfettamente osteointegrati..
In fact, the posterior implant failed.

Infatti quello dietro è andato

In my experience, this implant design—which is no longer on the market—did not perform particularly well. However, its apex was very suitable for crestal sinus lifts, which is why I selected it. In any event, the implant is functioning, and I hope it continues to do so. 😅

Questa morfologia (ora non più presente sul mercato) per me non era particolarmente perfomante. Anche se l’apice molto Carino per rialzi crestali e per questo da me scelto. Comunque funziona e spero continui a funzionare 😅
I do not want to tempt fate, but judging by that circumferential radiolucent halo and my experience with these implants, in five years you may be able to unscrew it with your fingers.

Non voglio portare iella, ma da quell alone circumferenziale, conoscendo gli impianti , tra 5 anni lo sviti con le dita
Three years have already passed. If it fails in another five years, we will be close to the global average for implant longevity. 😅 In any event, the sinus has now been augmented, so placing another implant will not be a problem. 😜💪🏻

Ne son passati 3 Se cade tra 5 siamo quai in media con la statistica mondiale della longevità Implantare 😅 Ma il seno ormai è stato rialzato e quindi non sarà un problema metterne un altro 😜💪🏻
A beautiful case nonetheless. ✌🏻💪🏼

Comunque caso bellissimo ✌🏻💪🏼
