ABSTRACT
AIM: This study aims to evaluate the results of 10 cases of maxillary sinus lifting using synthetic resorbable hydroxyapatite (osteogen ®) as a filling material. MATERIAL AND METHODS: The surgeries were performed in patients who presented bone resorption in this region. The results were compared radiographically six months after the surgery through initial and final radiographs analysis. RESULTS: The vertical bone height gain was on average 1200.4%, when compared to the initial bone edge. CONCLUSION: The formation of bone tissue in that region had made possible future prosthetic rehabilitation.
