Popis: The aim of this study was to evaluate cumulative survival rate of implants placed on augmented maxillary sinus using a mixture of autologous bone harvested from the maxillary tuberosity and bovine-derived HA and to assess the height of the grafted material through radiographic evaluation. Thirty-five patients were treated with maxillary sinus augmentation and 93 implant fixtures were installed. The height of the augmented sinus and the gain of bone volume were measured by Cone Beam CT Scan and intraoral radiographs immediately after augmentation and up to 48 months subsequently. Changes in the height of the sinus graft material were calculated radiographically. The cumulative survival rate was 98.92 % in all 93 implants. Additionally, normal healing process without any complication was observed in all patients. The original sinus height was a mean of 4.52 mm (range 2.0–6.4 mm) and the augmented sinus height was a mean of 14.1 mm (range 12.0–16.5 mm) after the surgery. The bone volume gain was a mean 9.613 mm (range 7–13 mm). Within the limitations of this study, it would appear from the clinical and radiographic results that the sinus lift procedure with autologous bone graft harvested from the maxillary tuberosity combined with deproteinized bovine bone allows for a predictable outcome regarding the amount of bone formation in sinus floor augmentation and the immediate placement of implants, when possible, is recommended.
