Dental implant study compares two sinus lift techniques for better outcomes
NCT ID NCT07329179
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at 14 people who needed dental implants in the upper jaw but had low bone height (3-5 mm). Researchers compared two sinus lifting methods: using Densah burs (a drill technique) versus the traditional lateral window approach. They measured pain, swelling, and implant stability after surgery to see which method worked better.
