ABSTRACT

The functional, social and cosmetic problems associated with the use of dentures have led to the increasing popularity and widespread use of implants. Alveolar bone height of 10 mm is generally accepted as necessary for predictable results in implant placement. When alveolar bone height is under 10 mm, augmentation of the maxillary sinus floor with grafts is previously performed for the reliable insertion of implants. However, there have been reports of an average 8% to 20% rate of sinusitis after augmentation surgery. Unfortunately, otolaryngologists often are consulted for management of complications. We present a case of maxillary sinusitis developed after antral augmentation. (J Clinical Otolaryngol 2005;16:298-301)
