The aim of this study is to evaluate the clinical and radiographic results of implants placed using osteotome sinus floor elevation (OSFE) with and without simultaneous enamel matrix derivative (EMD) application.
Twenty-four patients will be randomly assigned into two groups: Group I: (EMD+OSFE) (n=20 implants, 13 patients) OSFE with EMD application, and Group II 8OSFE): (n=20 implants, 11 patients) OSFE without EMD application. The patients will be recall at 3- and 12- months after surgery. The residual bone height (RBH), implant protrusion length (IPL), peri-implant sinus bone level (SBL), endo-sinus bone gain (ESBG), implant stability and peri-implant bone density values (Hounsfield units) will be assessed.

endo-sinus bone gain
New bone formation into sinus (NB) following OSFE- measured by endo-sinus bone gain
Time frame: CBCT will be evaluated at initiation of study (T0), at 3th month (T1) and 12th month (T2)
radiographic measurements
The residual bone height (RBH)
Time frame: CBCT will be evaluated at initiation of study (T0), at 3th month (T1) and 12th month (T2)
implant stability
resonance frequency analysis
Time frame: It will be measured at initiated at implant placement and third month follow-up
Radiographic measurements
implant protrusion length into the sinus
Time frame: CBCT will be evaluated at initiation of study (T0), and at 12th month (T2)
peri-implant sinus bone level
the distance between the groove most coronal to the implant and the bone-implant connection most apical to the implant
Time frame: CBCT will be evaluated at initiation of study (T0), at 3th month (T1) and 12th month (T2)
Densitometric Analysis
CBCT allows sectional analysis. Each axial image is 260000 megapixels, and each pixel has a CT number (Hounsfield unit). The higher the CT number, the denser the object
Time frame: Bone Density was measured at baseline, 3- and 12-months by CBCT scans
