12-year study reveals how bone graft material changes after sinus lift surgery
NCT ID NCT07635472
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at how a bone graft made from cow bone (deproteinized bovine bone mineral) changes in volume over up to 12 years after a sinus lift procedure. Researchers will use 3D scans to measure any shrinkage or stability of the graft. The goal is to understand long-term outcomes for people who need dental implants in the upper jaw.
What this could mean

What this could lead to
If successful, this could help dentists choose more predictable graft materials for sinus lifts, improving long-term implant success.
What could go wrong
This is a small, retrospective study (60 people) that only looks at one type of graft. Results may not apply to all patients or materials.
