First transcrestal mini sinus lift: sutures, Condress, hyaluronic acid or nothing

Gianluca is preparing a first transcrestal mini sinus lift and asks for advice on instruments and materials. Colleagues focus on ridge anatomy and suggest alternatives to the sequence Gianluca is considering.

What is the anatomy of the ridge you need to treat?

Rather than performing a mini sinus lift, I think I will try to displace that cortical plate. However, I would like to be prepared to perform a mini lift if I decide to place a 10 mm implant.

Più che un mini rialzo credo cercherò di spostare quella corticale , ma vorrei essere pronto a fare anche un mini rialzo nel caso volessi mettere un 10 mm

I will leave the answer to the experts.

I would use Vicryl sutures. No bone graft and no Condress either.

I would use a modified Summers technique here, without attempting any substantial elevation. All the requirements are present for a straightforward procedure with the Black Ruby tips. Therefore, I would not use any biomaterial.

Io qui farei una summer modificata Senza andare a rialzare chissà che. Ci sono tutti i requisiti per farlo facile facile con i BR. Quindi no biomateriale

Make sure you use the drill followed by the Black Ruby tips.

Mi raccomando fresa più black ruby

So, Black Ruby rather than Elevate?

Quindi BR no elevate?

My plan was to use a 2.2 mm drill to within 1 mm of the sinus floor, followed by Black Ruby tips 2, 3 and 4, also stopping 1 mm short, to expand and condense the bone without perforating the floor. If elevation proved necessary, I would then use Elevate with an 8 mm stop, followed by Condress, hyaluronic acid and a 4.1 × 8 mm Straumann Tissue Level implant.

Io pensavo fresa da 2,2 a 1 mm dalla corticale del seno, poi Br 2 poi 3 e 4 sempre ad 1 mm per espandere e condensare, senza sfondare, poi eventualmente necessario rialzare elevate con stop a 8 mm. Condress e ac ialuronico e impianti 4,1 da 8 Straumann tissue level

Alternatively, I could follow your advice, use the Black Ruby tips to a depth of 8 mm, place no graft material and insert the implant.

Oppure pensavo di seguire il tuo consiglio e vado di BR fino ad 8 mm, non metto niente e inserisco l’impianto
