Third molar transplantation combined with an osteotome sinus lift - two case reports

Clin Case Rep. 2017 Jun 28;5(8):1289-1296. doi: 10.1002/ccr3.1042. eCollection 2017 Aug.

Abstract

We report here on our application of the socket lift technique to create a transplant socket for the transplanted maxillary molar. These outcomes suggest that this technique is likely to be effective for tooth transplantation when the maxillary sinus bottom is close to the alveolar crest.

Keywords: Dental implant; maxillary sinus floor elevation; tooth transplantation.
