Titanium Platelet-rich Fibrin in Sinus Floor Elevation Through Flapless Transcrestal Approach

February 20, 2023 updated by: Hams Hamed Abdelrahman

Evaluation of the Use of Titanium Platelet-rich Fibrin in Sinus Floor Elevation Through Flapless Transcrestal Approach ( a Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial)

Dental implant therapy in the posterior maxilla may be difficult owing to limited bone height after dental extraction with sinus pneumatization. Several approaches for sinus floor elevation have been documented, and hence flapless transcrestal sinus floor elevation is minimally invasive technique which is used in moderately defected maxilla.

Aim of the study: to evaluate both clinical and radiographic outcomes in sinus floor elevation following dental implant placement using flapless transcrestal sinus lift approach with Titanium platelet rich fibrin (TPRF) as a sole sinus graft material compared to Platelet rich fibrin (PRF).

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change in bone density
Time Frame: Baseline and 6 months
Cuts of CBCT (cross sectional, axial and sagittal view), bone density, will be analyzed using On-demand software. The radiographic evaluation will be based on radiological parameters, using reference points and lines at T0 and T1.
Baseline and 6 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change in implant stability
Time Frame: Baseline and 6 months
Secondary implant stability will be measured 6 months post-operatively using Osstell device.
Baseline and 6 months
change in pain scores
Time Frame: 1st day, 3rd day and 1 week
Pain (by Visual Analogous Scale) ranges from 0 to 10 0 - No pain. 2 to 4 - Mild pain. 5 to 7 - Moderate pain. 8 to 10 - severe pain.
1st day, 3rd day and 1 week
