PurposeIntrasinus new bone formation (BF) has been observed after no-grafting osteotome sinus augmentation, and it is hypothesized to be influenced by the dimensions of the maxillary sinus. The aim of this clinical trial is to evaluate the influence of lateral-medial sinus width (SW) on no-grafting osteotome sinus augmentation outcomes using cone-beam computed tomography.Patients and MethodsAll patients recruited for this prospective study were treated with no-grafting osteotome sinus augmentation with simultaneous implant placement. Cone-beam computed tomography was obtained before, immediately after, and 6 months after the surgical procedure to use for measurements. Descriptive statistics were calculated and univariate, bivariate, and multivariate analysis were conducted to evaluate the influence of average SW and other relevant factors on procedure outcomes, including new BF, residual bone resorption (BR), and change of peri-implant bone height (CPBH).ResultsA total of 48 implants placed in 32 elevated sinuses of 29 patients were included. The average SW was 11.3 ± 1.8 mm. Intrasinus BF measured 1.7 ± 0.9 mm at 6 months after surgery. The amount of BR was 0.3 ± 0.9 mm, and CPBH was calculated as 1.3 ± 1.3 mm. Multivariate analysis showed a negative correlation between SW and BF (r = –0.469, P = .001), as well as between SW and CPBH (r = –0.562, P = .001). A positive correlation was discovered between SW and BR (r = 0.311, P = .027) in general.ConclusionsThe lateral-medial SW was observed to have a negative correlation with new BF and CPBH after no-grafting osteotome sinus augmentation.
