Immediate loading of 'All-on-4' maxillary prostheses using trans-sinus tilted implants without sinus bone grafting: a retrospective study reporting the 3-year outcome.

Conclusions: The high survival rate registered at patient and implant level indicates that the outcome of immediately loaded trans-sinus implants for the rehabilitation of edentulous atrophic maxillae to avoid sinus lift procedures is a viable treatment in the short and medium term. Future studies should focus on the long-term outcome of this rehabilitation modality. PMID: 24179981 [PubMed - in process]
