Implant restoration case on molar 47 yrs / Male

area using regular diameter implant


As a result of using Dentium implant for a long time, I am experiencing that
they are successfully functioning in many cases for 10 years or so,
and I figure that Dentium implant became well renowned implant that gives
a high level of satisfaction to both the dentist and patient.

Dr. Tae-Hyeong Kim / Kim & Lee Dental Clinic

C.C. 3/4/2004 Preoperative 4/8/2004 Postoperative


Pain in the posterior region in the left mandible and the right maxilla.

was performed after soft tissue on the extraction socket healed to some
degree, and submerged type was placed. 7 week post-operatively,
2nd surgery was performed.

Prosthetic Approach
Combi abutment was tightened with 25 Ncm and was connected and then 6/24/2004 Final prosthesis 6/24/2004 Final prosthesis
provisional restoration was installed. 1 week later, combi abutment was
retightened with 25 Ncm, and 2nd impression was taken to finish and install
the final prosthesis.

Conclusion

Alveolar bone augmentation in vertical 61 yrs / Male

dimension and implant placement,


using lateral window technique
During implant placement, it was difficult to gain initial stability of implant
due to the lack of residual bone volume at maxillary right molar.
However, I was completely satisfied that initial condition of implantation remained
at alveolar crest level until now.

Dr. Gwan-Taek Jo / Yes Dental Clinic

6/30/2004 Preoperative 11/3/2004 Postoperative

C.C.
Patient had problems with eating due to missing molar teeth.

Surgical Approach
Due to clinical limit of residual bone volume, a procedure of alveolar bone
augmentation in vertical dimension was performed for attaining initial stability
of implant It enabled putting minimum effort of drilling and self-tapping
for implantation.
6/20/2005 Final prosthesis 3/14/2007 2 years follow up
Prosthetic Approach
Showed equal mastication force with remaining teeth
Removed premature contact in case lateral movement had been made.

Conclusion
Now, after 10 years later of implantation, bone resorption has not been observed
through X-ray. Also, there was no screw-loosening of implant at both maxilla
and mandible. (SCRP Type)

External sinus lift with bone graft 59 yrs / Male

and simultaneous implantation


From 10 years ago, I started to use the IMPLANTIUM for failure cases of foreign brand
implants. The implant still shows a success rate of 99%, and now I use only Dentium
implant system. Although there are still demands on long term follow up, I am sure
that the result will be satisfying based on past experiences.

Dr. Yong-Ho Park / Namsuwon Well Dental Clinic

8/5/2002 Preoperative (Re I.S) 11/30/2002 Postoperative (Re l.S)

Surgical Approach
1) Chase allograft as the bone grafting material to be used for this
particular case
2) Simultaneous implantation based on the initial stability to reduce
treatment time
3) Minimal drilling and self-threading for initial fixation Place the implant
deeply into the bone due to the reduced residual bone from the
previous implant failure

Prosthetic Approach 8/2/2003 Final prosthesis 2/28/2006 3 years follow up


Crown design was taken into consideration to prevent prematurity
in lateral occlusal forces and to control food impaction

Conclusion
The implant has been well maintained without bone loss for 10 years.
It has been identified during the follow up that while a natural tooth
was extracted and replaced with an implant.
The bone condition of the original implant has been well maintained
without any problems.

evaluation on dental implant system


Initial fixation in the root-end was favourable even with adverse conditions
of the implant placement location.
For the case of performing an alveolar bone graft along with the placement,
the response with the grafted bone and the surrounding bone has been excellent.

Dr. Won-Bae Park / Parkwonbae Dental Clinic

11/10/2002 Preoperative 11/28/2002 Postoperative


C.C.
On 11/10/2002, he patient wanted to have implant placed due to
inconvenience with chewing.

Surgical Approach
1) Both second molars (hopeless teeth) in the left and right maxilla were extracted,
and four IMPLANTIUM (3.8 x 12 mm) of Dentium were placed after 1 month.
Bone graft was performed in the extraction and missing teeth area using a xenogenic
bone, and membrane was not used
2) After 4 months, the second stage surgery was performed, and the final prosthesis
was installed after 6 months
5/19/2003 Final prosthesis 5/23/2005 2 years follow up
3) The patient visited the clinic after 2 years and 10 years and was evaluated
with clinical testing and panoramic imaging. The result was shown satisfactory
since the gingiva near abutment was tightly sealed, and crestal bone was
stabilized with no change
Branemark affiliated implants have been the industry standard for over 30 years due to a large
amount of long-term clinical data that can be found. Long-term data offers important information
on the life of implant, improvement and development of the implant design, and the choice of the
implant. For the case of well-known implants by famous global brands, it is clear that there have
been a lot of data accumulated with published researches. This is how brands become famous
and recognized. In order to obtain long-term data, it requires great effort and time.
What can we say about lesser known domestic implants? There is short-term data available,
however, many new products had been released even before most short-term data were
presented. For the selection of an implant, it is necessary to observe the survival rate and the
changes in the crestal bone for at least 5 years. Survival rates of the implants currently in the
market vary from 90% to 98%. On the basis of Branemark data, Adell (1981) showed an absorption 1/17/2013 10 years follow up 1/10/2014 11 years follow up
of 1 - 1.5 mm for the first year and 0.1 - 0.2 mm each year afterwards, which is assumed to be in the
normal range. What about Dentium implants? Cases that lasted over 2 years from the 584 implants
used in 166 patients were collected. Follow-up of long-term clinical data of 10 years on those cases
were also performed. The average recall period was 67.04 months and 4 implants among those
failed. A very high survival rate of 99.32% was shown. Also, the frequency of bone resorption was
5.82% and the average of bone resorption rate was 0.21 mm/implant, which is very low.
Crestal bone resorption rate was much lower than revealed in the Branemark data.
The crestal bone response has been shown to be very stable.

Conclusion
In conclusion, Dentium implant showed an outstanding clinical efficiency
when it is compared with other overseas and domestic imlants.
If more resrearches are conducted, its credibility will be even strengthened.

10 Years of follow up case of 52 yrs / Female

Dentium S.L.A. surface implant


Marginal bone response near the implant area has remained stable.
10 years have passed and there are no particular issues.

Dr. Jong-Chan Park / Pyeongchon Ye Dental Hospital

C.C. 2/17/2002 Preoperative 10/9/2003 Postoperative


The patient requested an implant to replace their missing teeth.

Surgical Approach
Since there were few residual bones in maxilla (residual ridge height
from alveolar crest was only 3 - 4mm), maxillary sinus lift was performed
after a tooth extraction. After approximately 7 months, an implant was
placed in a more accurate location using a pre-fabricated surgical guide.
As seen from the picture, the early stage of IMPLANTIUM had a mount,
which greatly helped in determination of a placement direction.
A protocol about the placement period at that time was to exert loading
6 months after the placement; however, in this case, loading by temporary 11/2/2005 Final prosthesis 8/22/2007 2 years follow up
crown was done at 4.7 months and the final prosthesis was installed
approximately after 2 months.

Prosthetic Approach
In order to reduce the number of placement, it was planned to use a bridge
type for both maxilla and mandible. In addition, abutments with various
gingival heights were used to avoid an exposure of metal collar.
Following the protocol practiced at that time, the distal side of the 2nd molar,
which was the most prone to the fracture, was treated with metal coverage
to give a protection against fracture.
10 years have passed and there is no fracture on porcelain tooth.
7/8/2010 5 years follow up 1/8/2013 10 years follow up

Conclusion
10 years report of Implantium treated with S.L.A. (Sandblasting with Large
grits and Acid etching) surface of Dentium was presented.
Radiographs have shown that bone response is excellent and it is maintained
well with no screw loosening up to the present moment.
Margin of prosthesis was not as accurate as today since it was difficult for the
initial impression coping to obtain a precise location within the impression
material; however, it has been maintained well without cement leakage.

Restoration of the loss of bilateral 51 yrs / Male

mandibular molars by using implants


As a clinician who enjoys experiencing diverse implant systems, I get to choose
Dentium Implantium preferably in challenging cases because of its stability.
Comparisons between long term follow ups are looked forward.

Dr. Se-Ung Oh / Hwain Dental Hospital

C.C. 9/16/2003 Preoperative 9/16/2003 Postoperative


Consultation on implant prosthesis on the loss area.

Surgical Approach
Judging from the degree of abrasion of the residual teeth although there was
no bad habit, mastication force over medium level was expected, and wide
implant was thus planned. The bone width of the patient was appropriate.
1) Implant length is decided based on the measurement of the possible
bone height because implant gets more deeply positioned with its depth
being over 0.5 mm away from the bone crest as the diameter becomes wider.
2) Implant with appropriate depth is chosen, knowing the location and runway
angle of mental foramen on the 2nd premolar area under CT image. 11/1/2006 Final prosthesis 10/13/2009 6 years follow up

Prosthetic Approach
In an old bilateral loss condition, to compensate the change of the expected
height and mandibular position, ready-made combi abutment was connected,
and occlusion on the posterior teeth area was slightly raised in provisional
resin restoration condition, and the occlusion point that coincides with the
tooth axis was provided. After observing and reinforcing the sinking
phenomenon, final restoration was done with gold crown 6 weeks later.

Conclusion
Personally, I have experienced a huge difference of occurrence rate of 3/15/2012 8 years follow up 2/11/2014 10 years follow up
peri-implantitis which is characteristic is comparative observation between
so called luxury foreign implants and many domestically manufactured
implants having fragmentary but regular surgical procedures and criteria.
Compared to this, long term result of tissue reaction of Dentium implant
seems to be very positive.

Dentium for a family member 76 yrs / Male

Although it was a single case, the marginal bone response,


connection of fixture-abutment and gingival response was excellent.

Dr. Seung-Min Han / Seoul Ichon Dental Clinic

C.C.
The patient requested an implant placement.

Surgical Approach 6/2003 Preoperative 6/2003 Postoperative


This was an early case of an implant to further understand the characteristics
of IMPLANTIUM. It had the similar internal and conical connection type as
IMPLANTIUM. A severe progression of root caries led to an extraction. It was
an indication of an immediate placement. However, the placement was done
after approximately 3 months. The purpose was to perform the IMPLANTIUM
procedure exactly according to the manual since it was still early in the stage
of introduction to the IMPLANTIUM. At that time, an implant was placed so
that the implant top part was located at 0.5 mm downward from the bone
crest level. The second surgery was performed after submerged healing
for approximately 2 months.
9/2/2003 Final prosthesis
Prosthetic Approach
The final prosthesis was completed in 3 months after the surgery.
A firm connection without screw loosening between fixture and
abutment was considered an advantage of IMPLANTIUM.
The precise connection among the prosthetic parts was the main focus.
SCRP-type prosthesis was manufactured. Screw tightening was done
to avoid screw loosening two more times in 2 weeks intervals.

Conclusion
It is considered to be a successful case in the long term since cortical
bone near marginal bone is retained well and even gained 11/4/2005 2 years follow up 5/8/2013 10 years follow up
by functional remodeling. As a result of comparison of radiographs
taken immediately after installation of the prosthesis with radiographs
taken 10 years after the marginal bone gaining was observed.
Cortical bone around implants has been maintained in good condition.
It would be fair to expect positive results in the long run.

Bone overgrowth at 10 years 35 yrs / Female

after surgery in molar area


I have been using one product since using Dentium implant which is the only
implant showing no bone resorption among the fixtures that I have installed
since Astra implant. This helps minimizing error due to dexterous familiarity
and also helps management due to simplification of the inventory.

Dr. Il-Woo Jang / Seongwon Well Dental Clinic

5/14/2003 Preoperative 5/23/2003 Postoperative


Surgical Approach
On the area where extension bridge had been used for a long time,
#47 was installed slightly tilted anteriorly considering the opposing tooth.

Prosthetic Approach
After connecting dual AB, cement type porcelain crown was installed.
Since the patient was meticulous on oral hygiene, no special treatment
except for a regular check up and partial occlusal adjustment has been done
since 2003, and there is no finding of bone resorption.

Conclusion 12/30/2003 Final prosthesis 11/24/2005 2 years follow up


In the result of follow up through 2003, good long-term prognosis is shown
with compatibility with gum and overgrowth bone formation between 2 fixtures.

Patient requested for implant placement in mandibular left and right molar. 6/30/2003 Preoperative 7/4/2003 Postoperative (#35, 36)

Surgery Key Point


As #44, #45, and #46 had narrow bone width, the selection of implant size
and implantation site was important.
It had been decided during the surgery whether bone graft should be
performed or not

Surgery Aspect
After 2weeks of #36 and #37 implantation, #36 cover screw had been exposed
a little and so it was replaced with healing abutment.
4312 was implanted in #36 and 4310 was implanted in #37. 7/31/2003 Postopertive (#44, 45, 46) 7/31/2003 Final prosthesis
3412 was implanted in #44 and 3812 was implanted in #46.
Bone graft was not performed.

Prosthetic Aspect
Thin diameter implants were placed in #44, #45, and #46 due to narrow bone width.
Therefore, splint with prosthesis was considered.
Until now, for 10 years, there had been no problem with implant.

Conclusion
After 2 months prosthesis had been installed, patient has shown favorable
outcome until now. 10/4/2012 9 years follow up 4/1/2014 11 years follow up
Bone resorption was hardly observed. Gingival recession was happened
a little, but still it remains healthy.

The patient wanted esthetic restoration with implant in the maxillary anterior.

Surgical Approach
Installed small diameter implant (lmplantium 3.4D/ML) for the surgical
operation of ridge expansion on tooth #22.
To minimize damages on the cortical bone of the labial, I applied bone
graft material into the interior of the labial while flap reflectionwas minimized.

Prosthetic Approach
I maintained convexity for the gingival of the labial, while I was conducting the 7/15/2003 Implantation 7/15/2003 Postoperative
second surgery with the surgical method of palatal roll-in after six months
of the implantation. Temporary prosthesis using Combi Abutment
(2mm GH / 41.80) were placed for three months and then were ultimately
replaced with the final prosthesis. (prosthesis treatment: Prof. Jung-won Hwang)

Conclusion
Having passed 10 years and 6 months since the implantation, gingival
retraction and resorption of marginal bone have been hardly noticed.
The esthetic prosthesis have been maintained well.

Dr. Jong-Chan Park / Ye Dental Clinic

Surgical Approach
AS can be seen in the bone graft procedure scene using the OSTEON II Sinus,
it is evident that the blood permeated well in between the bone graft material.
Judging from this behavior, it is provided that it allowed a favorable environment
for new bone growth.

Prosthetic Approach 4/19/2012 Sinus detaches using DASK 4/19/2012 OSTEON II Sinus
In case of implementing the alveolar process in the maxillary premolar
region, the augulation of the implant placement may be off.
Therefore, CCM abutment was utilized to create the full zirconia crown.

Conclusion
It was very dffective to utilize the OSTEON II Sinus, for bone graft procedure
in the maxilla with insufficient residual bone depth. Moreover, it was highly
effective when OSTEON II Collagen was used to increase the bone volume.

Teeth are wobbly and painful.

Surgery Key Point


To provide the patient with a periodontal and orthodontic treatment,
the tooth #31 was extracted and had implant placed 7 months later.
At the time of impant placement, there was a lateral bony defect labially.
The space given at the surgical site was insucient for implant placement
mesiodistally and also labiolingually. So, I placed the 3.0mm diameter NR Line
implant deeper slightly and grafted OSTEON II Collagen with Collagen Membrane.

Prosthetic Key Point 4/30/2014 Implantation (NR Line 3011S) 4/30/2014 Bone graft (OSTEON II Collagen)
Prior to nal impression, the Temporary cylinder was used to fabricate
provisional restoration for soft tissue modeling.
Furthermore, the customized abutment was milled to provide adequate
biologic width around the implant.

Conclusion
When we install implant at the very narrow alveolar ridge,the 3.0mm diameter
NR Line implant is the proper selection. Especially when the orientation of the
osteotomy and the restoration is dierent, a two-piece implant/abutment option
is better than the one-piece SlimLine implant. Moreover, when the space is limited 4/30/2014 Suture 9/24/2014 Final prosthesis

Conclusion
Alveolar bone grafting was performed because alveolar bone resorption was
severe, but interdental space problem was solved by prosthetis since alveolar
bone and gingival formation was insufficient on the distal side.

Surgery Key Point
Fixed implant prosthesis was restored due to the loss of #13. To avoid the
formation of the incision line from surgery, immediate implantation with
flapless surgery was performed. Because the absorption of buccal alveolar
bone was expected, OSTEON II Collagen with excellent manipulation was
filled -together on the extraction socket to compensate it.

Prosthetic Key Point


Since upper lateral incisor has narrow mesiodistal width, NR Line which is
favorable in narrow alveolar width was chosen from treatment planning 7/29/2014 Implantation (NR Line 3009S) 7/29/2014 Bone graft (OSTEON II Collagen)

Conclusion
Because immediate implantation using NR Line implant was done, the tissue
that could be easily damaged was well saved and the procedures were
thus able to be successfully finished through implant restoration.

By using surgical stent, 2 implants were installed, and the effort was made
so that both implants were located at the same distance away from the
midline and in the same depths.

Surgery aspect
Since Simpleline II is non-submerged type, it lessened the burden of 2nd surgery
on aged patient, and the treatment procedures were relatively simple.

Prosthetic aspect
Since the head part of the ball abutment is small, it could be utilized usefully,
and O-ring on the inner surface of metal housing had sufficient retention 11/30/2011 Implantation 11/30/2011 Postoperative
force that aged patients could place and remove with no problem, and smooth
placement and removal was felt as well from an operators point of view.
Since O-ring could be replaced when it becomes worn out, and this also
lessens the burden of maintenance and repair cost.

Conclusion
Implant overdenture using Simpline II and ball attachment is simple in its
procedures, and prosthetic treatment, repair and maintenance are also
easy, so it is expected that it will be actively utilized in the future.

Surgery Key Point
Since installation location could be freely chosen, the case which accompanies
a complex and challenging procedures such as bone grafting could be minimized,
and the possibility of the occurrence of complication such as inferior alveolar
nerve damage could be minimized.

Prosthetic key point


The possibility of an error occurrence is very low because there is no complex
prosthetic procedure, the cost is low, and an excellent convenience and
simplicity in maintenance is provided. Also, since the size of the positioner 5/2/2012 Positioner connection 5/2/2012 Final prosthesis
is very small, space invasion necessary for aligning the denture teeth could
be minimized.

Conclusion
In mandible, stability of implant used for (implant-tissue supported)
overdenture could be sufficiently secure without splinting the implants unlike
bar type where implants must be splinted. If positioner is used, a sufficiently
stable overdenture will be provided with minimum implant numbers and the
cost for fabrication and maintenance will be low. Also, the convenience of the 5/2/2012 Final prosthesis 1/4/2013 1 year Follow up

Surgery Key Point


Being maxillary and mandibular edentulous state as a result of clinical
and radiographical exams, upper and lower dentures were being used.
Especially, mandible showed a medium level of alveolar bone resorption.
Considering the patients preference and treatment cost, maxillary complete
denture and mandibular overdenture using two implants were planned.

Prosthetic aspect
1 week after implant installment, the inner surface of the denture was adjusted 10/31/2011 Postoperative 11/8/2011 Healing 2 weeks (#43, #33)
so that the patient could use the denture.
2 months later, ball attachment was connected with 35 Ncm force, and to
connect the female attachment to the denture, pick-up impression was
taken with indirect method by using ball impression coping for pick-up
impression after forming holes on the existing denture. The female matrix
of the ball attachment was connected to the attachment, and the undercut
on the lower part was blocked-out by using fit-checker, and self curing resin
was added, and then relining was done by using priorly made occlusal index
After trying in the overdenture to the patient, its inner surface was adjusted
by using fit-checker. After installing the overdenture, patient satisfaction

level was high, and it was found that the denture was well maintained
in several regular follow-ups.

Conclusion
Mandibular overdnture by using 2 implants has many advantages such as clinical
success rate, patient satisfaction, cost, lessening of the burden of the surgery on
the patient etc.

Limited bone formation and slight bony ingrowth originating from the border of the
native bone were ob- served (Fig 2). Remaining BCP par- ticles were easily distinguishable
from the native bone and connec-tive tissue because of differences in staining and
morphologic prop- erties. In some specimens, BCP particles seemed to act as an os-
teoconductive scaffold for bone re- generation, as newly formed bone was observed
around the graft par- ticles. No obvious between-group differences in bone regeneration
were found.

rh- BMP-2 groups. Formation of bone at the central area of the tube was a common nding
in the control and both rhBMP-2 groups. In the areas with new bone formation, intimate
contact was observed between the graft particles and newly formed bone, and graft

into the pores of the biomaterial was also noted in the control and both rhBMP-2 groups, and
the BCP particles were embedded in woven bone and in dense connective tis- sue and mar-
row space. Compared with that of other specimens, robust new bone formation was noted
in both rhBMP-2 groups, with the pat- tern of bone regeneration different from that of other
specimens. rh- BMP-2 appeared to have induced bone more uniformly over the surgi- cal
defects, whereas other growth factors induced bone mainly from the margins of the defects
and pro- ceeding toward the center. Both rh- PDGF-BB groups appeared to have a weaker
a b
bone formation response than the other groups. Bone depo- sition appeared to be delayed
in these two groups, whereas uniform bone formation was observed for the rhBMP-2 groups.

8-week specimens
New bone growth was observed around the graft particles as well as within the structure of
the graft particulate for all groups (Figs 5 and 6). A clear demarcation was not observed be-
tween the grafted area and the native bone in many specimens because uniform and mature
c d bone formation were ob- served at this point. Quality of new bone appeared to be similar to
the surrounding native bone. The rhBMP-2 groups appeared to have generated substantially
more newly formed bone than the other groups, and some specimens had bone formation
extending to the inner aspect of the polycarbonate cap. Histomorphometric analysis
Histomorphometric analysis was performed to compare the amount of newly formed bone
and remain- ing graft materials (Fig 8). The analysis of variance table revealed no differences
in the re- maining bone graft percentages in different experimental groups at 2, 4, or 8 weeks.

observed within the con ne- ment of the polycarbonate tube at 4 weeks. Super cial
disintegration or fragmentation of BCP particles into small grains have been previously
re- ported,20 whereas osteoclasts were responsible for material resorption in another
human study.21,22 The high percentage of vital bone in regener- ated sites indicated
that bone cells might still be actively replacing BCP, and additional time may increase
the amount of vital bone formation while reducing the residual graft amount.22
Biomaterial by itself (as in the present control group) has been demonstrated to improve
bone re- generation and similar histologic behavior (as reported in other similar studies).
14 At all data collection pe- riods, the control group (Osteon III only) had more new bone
formation than both Osteon III + rhPDGF-BB groups. Porosity and pore intercon- nectivity
have an effect on the BCPs rate of biodegradation, as well as new bone formation,
vascularization, and graft stability.1 An optimum bal- ance between the stable phase
of HA and the soluble phase of -TCP may have enhanced new bone for- mation.1
The importance of car- rier effect for the growth factor was highlighted by the present
ndings as well as those of Kao et al, who reported a negative effect on bone formation
when rhBMP-2 was added to xenografts.23 In the present study, BCP with a composition
of 60% HA and 40% -TCP may not have been a compatible or effective carrier for rhFGF-2

Conclusions
Results of the present study support the use of BCP graft particulates to stimulate new bone
formation by itself or in mixture with a growth factor, such as rhBMP-2. This com- bination
appeared to be biocom- patible and histologically successful in forming new bone at an
acceler- ated rate. Early and uniform onset of bone formation was noted in both rhBMP-2
groups. Low concentra- tions of rhBMP-2 (0.5 mg/mL) ap- peared to be as effective as high
concentrations (1.0 mg/mL). How- ever, the concentrations of these growth factors for use
with BCP need to be tested in an animal study with a larger sample size.

OSTEON III was applied for treating bony defect in Implant placement and
then Collagen membrane was covered over the bone graft material.
During the surgical procedure, OSTEON III was easy to handle and wettability
was good. when the flap was opened in the second stage surgery,
it was shown that new osteoid tissue was well formed and sufficiently hard.
OSTEON III was also well blended with the existing alveolar bone. 1/13/2015 Preoperative 7/10/2015 Preoperative
Therefore, it is considered that OSTEON III would be used efficiently as an
appropriate bone graft material for GBR procedure by clinicians.

Customized abutment was used and PFM crown was restored.

Conclusion
When we install implantat the very narrow alveolar ridge, the 3.0mm 7/10/2015 Postoperative 10/20/2015 Second stage Surgery
diameter NR Line implant is the proper selection.
Especially when the orientation of the osteotomy and the restoration
is dierent, a two-piece implant/abutment option is better than the
one-piece SlimLine implant. Moreover, when the space is limited and the
soft tissue level is irregular in shape, it is eective to use a customized
abutment to achieve adequate biologic width around the implant.

Conclusion
When newly developed OSTEON III was used, satisfactory newly
formed tissue was observed on the site where sinus elevation
and GBR were performed. As this newly formed tissue lead to an intimate
contact with implant surface, a successful osseointegration of implants
was observed despite unfavorable bone condition.
