Abstract :

Introduction:Schneiderian memane perforation is the most common complication of maxillary sinus augmentation procedures and has been associated with a variety of postsurgical problems. Multiple techniques to repair perforated Schneiderian memanes have been reported in the dental literature.

Case Report:

A 26 year old patient came for replacement of upper right maxillary molar. Due to inadequate residual bone height in that region, a maxillary sinus augmentation procedure was planned with direct sinus lift and simultaneous implant placement. During the elevation of maxillary sinus memane perforation of sinus memane occurred. Sinus memane perforation was carefully assessed, classified and managed by direct repair. Sinus memane was repaired by absorbable 5–0 sutures with placement of absorbable GTR memane, bone substitute and simultaneous implant placement. After proper post operative instructions and seven month follow up no complications were reported and well osteointegrated implant with three mm of apical bone was seen.

Conclusions: The case report indicates if maxillary sinus memane perforation is well managed then it has no effect on the outcome of implant survival.
