Summary

Modern dental implantology offers solutions for patients with edentulism in the maxillary arch, where sinus pneumatization and alveolar ridge atrophy are common. This requires sinus floor elevation and bone grafting for implant placement. Techniques like the lateral window approach and osteotome-mediated sinus floor elevation aim to achieve the necessary vertical bone height for implants. Autogenous bone grafts have been the gold standard but have limitations like donor site morbidity and graft volume loss, leading to the exploration of alternatives. Membranes, such as resorbable collagen or titanium-reinforced materials, are commonly used in these procedures but have limitations related to customization, cost, and failure rates.Recent studies have suggested that placing implants directly into the sinus without grafting material can stimulate bone formation, leveraging blood clots to activate bone-forming cells. Zirconia, a ceramic material known for its bioinertness and mechanical strength, is being explored for its potential in sinus lift procedures. Customized 3D zirconia membranes may offer a solution to enhance bone formation and soft tissue integration during sinus lifts.This study aims to evaluate the effect of using customized zirconia membranes in sinus lift procedures with simultaneous implant placement, comparing bone height outcomes with conventional sinus lifts without membranes
