Long-term outcomes of implants with sinus lifts
Part of Ear, nose & throat, Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study looks at how well dental implants hold up many years after a sinus lift procedure. If you had a sinus lift and implant around 1997–2001 at the University of Bern, you may be asked to come in for an exam to check your implant health.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You were treated at the University of Bern's oral surgery department between 1997 and 2001.
- You had a sinus lift (bone graft surgery in the upper jaw) along with getting a dental implant during that time.
- You were part of an earlier study about your implants.
- You can come back to the clinic for a check-up exam.
- You don't have a serious illness that could make the exam risky.

This study compares two methods for lifting the sinus floor to place dental implants. It is for people who need an implant in the upper jaw but don't have enough bone height. The goal is to see which technique works better.
This study looks at two different ways to lift the sinus floor before placing a dental implant in the upper back jaw. Doctors want to see which method works better over time, helping patients keep their implants strong and healthy.
This trial compares two surgical methods to help place dental implants in the upper back jaw when there isn’t enough bone height. It may help you and your dentist choose the safest approach to create enough support for the implant.
This trial tests two different ways to lift the sinus floor to make room for a dental implant in the upper jaw. It may be an option if you are missing a back tooth and have enough bone height.
This study looks at what factors might lead to problems during a sinus lift procedure for dental implants in the upper jaw. It aims to help dentists better plan for patients who have less than 6mm of bone height.
This study examines how computer planning improves dental implant surgery when bone needs to be built up in the upper back jaw. Researchers will assess whether digital planning helps predict better outcomes for patients getting sinus lift procedures.
