Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To assess the osteogenesis height in maxillary sinus segment one year after zygomatic implantation by imaging methods, and evaluate the influence of patient factors, maxillary sinus anatomical factors and surgical factors on postoperative osteogenesis height.
METHODS:This study is a retrospective study, including patients who underwent zygomatic implantation and whose zygomatic implants passed through the maxillary sinus at the Department of Implantology, Peking University School and Hospital of Stomatology from July 2017 to January 2022. Preoperative and postoperative cone beam CT (CBCT)was taken to measure and calculate the average osteogenesis height (AOH) in maxillary sinus segment of the zygomatic implants, then the residual bone height, the width and morphology of the maxillary sinus floor in the buccal and palatal directions were measured. Besides, the integrity of Schneiderian membrane during implant surgery, and the general information of the patients and zygomatic implants were recorded. By comparing anatomical situations and surgical characteristics, the differences of AOH under different conditions were analyzed. Then AOH was divided into two groups (obvious osteogenesis group and non-obvious osteogenesis group) using the median as the threshold, and the influencing factors of osteogenesis were evaluated using mixed effect generalized linear model univariable and multivariable analysis.
RESULTS:A total of 47 zygomatic implants were implanted in 24 patients. During the average follow-up period of 12.1 months, there was no implant failure, and the implant survival rate was 100%. Postoperative CBCT showed that 43 zygomatic implants had osteogenic images in the maxillary sinus segment, most of which originated from the floor of the maxillary sinus, and the median AOH was 3.1 mm [interquartile range (IQR): 4.0 mm]. In terms of maxillary sinus width, there were 31 cases (66.0%) of wide type and 16 cases (34.0%) of narrow type. In the aspect of buccal and palatal morphology, 17 cases were taper (36.2%), 20 cases were round (42.6%), and 10 cases were flat (21.3%). The median of residual bone height was 2.8 mm (IQR: 2.2 mm) before operation. Univa-riate analysis of mixed effect generalized linear model showed that postoperative obvious osteogenic rate was related to the residual bone height (OR=2.09, P=0.006). Multivariate analysis showed that the resi-dual bone height (OR=2.55, P=0.022) and the shape of a taper maxillary sinus (OR=11.44, P=0.040) had a significant impact on the postoperative obvious osteogenic rate.
CONCLUSION:The maxillary sinus floor showed osteogenic images 1 year after the zygomatic implantation surgery. Larger residual bone height and the shape of a taper maxillary sinus may be favorable factors for osteogenesis.
