Abstract
In recent years, some biomaterials have been widely used in dental and oral surgery fields. Many persons have reported and investigated about the indication of implants. Many cases work well, but a few cases do not. Particularly in the maxilla, the indication of implants is very difficult.
The authors experienced a case which had received utilization of implants in the maxilla and followed by right maxillary sinusitis.
The purpose of this study is to show a concept of the use of implants in the maxilla.
The patient was a 47-year-old male who had received utilization of endosseous implants in the right maxilla and followed by right maxillary sinusitis. He was treated by removal of implants and sinectomy.
