Abstract
Dental implant surgery in the maxillary posterior region with insufficient alveolar bone height can be performed in one or two stages, depending on the amount of residual bone. Anatomical structures in the area where the procedure will be performed increase surgical sensitivity, and failure to make the necessary preparations may lead to various complications. During dental implant surgical procedures, various complications may be encountered in the relevant area. A 56-year-old male patient applied to our clinic with the complaint of severe and persistent pain. With panoramic and cone beam computed tomography evaluation, it was determined that the apical parts of the last two implants were in the sinus. After obtaining consent, two adjacent implants were explanted within the same session on the planned day, and the procedure area was closed with buccal fat tissue obtained from the patient and autologous platelet-rich fibrin.
