Popis: Studies on the vertical stability of augmented bone after sinus lifting differ substantially. In addition, long healing periods are usually advocated prior to implant installation. The purpose of this case series study was to evaluate the changes in bone height after sinus lifting with a bovine-derived xenograft and to evaluate the clinical outcome of bone condensing implants installed after a short healing period. Patients treated during the years 2010-2013 were re-examined using peri-apical radiographs to evaluate the changes in augmented bone height (BH) and marginal bone loss (BL). Fifty-seven of 70 eligible subjects (28 male and 29 female, mean age 56 years) attended for reassessment. Data were available for 53 sinus lifts and 105 implants installed after a mean healing period of 4.6±1.5 months. Implant survival was 99% after a mean time in function of 19±9 months. Baseline BH, BH at implant placement, and final BH were on average 3.87±1.74mm, 13.75±2.12mm, and 13.11±2.12mm, respectively (P
