Abstract
Dental rehabilitation using osseointegrated implants is a routine for dentists. Maxillary sinus lift surgery is essential in expanding the indications for dental implants, as it re-establishes adequate bone volume for the installation of implants in the ideal areas in the middle posterior portion of maxillae that have undergone the physiological process of pneumatization. This article describes the chronology of this technique and its increase over time.
