NCT02449707

Brief Summary

Ultrasound activated pins have been used for the promotion of bone healing in combination with biodegradable membranes during bone grafting procedures. In the jaws, these pins have been successfully tested for both maxillary and mandibular ridge augmentaton. However, the usefulness of these pins in maxillary sinus lift procedures has not been tested. This study aims to use a bilateral split mouth design to compare the bone formation, healing and post-operative complications after the use of ultrasonic guided pins in a lateral window maxillary sinus augmentation procedure in comparison to lateral window maxillary sinus augmentation procedure procedure performed without the use of these pins.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change in bone thickness (in mm)

    Change from Baseline thickness in 6 months

Secondary Outcomes (2)

    Change from baseline VAS in 6 months

  • Bone Quality - Measured by the type of bone observed on the trephine biopsy

    1 year

Study Arms (2)

Control

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Lateral Window Technique Augmentation for Maxillary Sinus without the use of Ultrasound activated resorbable poly-D-L-lactide pins for the stabilization of membrane. Placement of Purus® Cancellous Allograft, stabilized by Biomend ™ Collagen membrane. Cone Beam CT image of the sinus will be taken to evaluate the bone formation. Trephine Biopsy will be performed after 1 year, at the time of placement of implant to check the quality of bone formed.

EXPERIMENTAL

Lateral Window Technique Augmentation for Maxillary Sinus with the use of Ultrasound activated resorbable poly-D-L-lactide pins for the stabilization of the Purus® Cancellous Allograft, and Resorb X Membrane.Cone Beam CT image of the sinus will be taken to evaluate the bone formation. Trephine Biopsy will be performed after 1 year, at the time of placement of implant to check the quality of bone formed.

Interventions

Maxillary sinus augmentation will be performed using the lateral window technique

ControlUltrasonic Pins

The titanium membrane placed during the maxillary sinus augmentation procedure will be stabilized using ultrasound activated resorbable poly-D-L-lactide pins

Also known as: Sonic Weld
Ultrasonic Pins

Allograft material placed in the sinus to acheive sinus augmentation

ControlUltrasonic Pins

The membrane placed over the graft material before placement of the ultrasound activated pins

Ultrasonic Pins
BiomendDEVICE

Collagen healing membrane placed over the graft material on the side where no ultrasound activated pins are being used

Control

Cone beam CT will used to assess the thickness of bone formation after the placement of the graft

ControlUltrasonic Pins

Trephine Biopsy will be performed at the time of the placement of implant to study the quality of bone formed

ControlUltrasonic Pins
