Summary
This study tests a new way to lift the sinus floor using a special drill (Densah bur) guided by a surgical template, while placing a dental implant at the same time. Ten patients with missing upper back teeth and a shallow sinus will receive this procedure. The goal is to see how much bone can be added and how well the implant holds.
