Expert consensus on maxillary sinus floor elevation: maxillary sinus septum

doi:10.12337/zgkqzzxzz.2024.04.003

Abstract

Abstract: The maxillary sinus septum is a common bony structure in the maxillary sinus. It is very important to understand the presence of the maxillary sinus septum when designing the sinus floor elevation. Therefore, this paper summarizes the classification of maxillary sinus septum, its anatomical and biological characteristics, its influence on maxillary sinus osteogenesis, and its treatment methods and principles, in order to provide a reference for the clinical implementation of sinus floor elevation with maxillary sinus septum, and to reduce the complications caused by the presence of maxillary sinus septum.

Key words: Maxillary sinus septum, Sinus floor elevation, Osteogenesis, Expert Consensus
