Background: Dental implant therapy in the posterior maxilla may be difficult owing to limited bone height after dental extraction with sinus pneumatization. Several approaches for sinus floor elevation have been documented, and hence trans crestal sinus lifting with albumin platelet rich plasma. Aim of the study: To compare between erythropoietin and albumin platelet rich fibrin transcrestal sinus lifting versus albumin platelet rich fibrin transcrestal sinus lifting using piezoelectric device in patients with atrophic maxilla. Methods: This study will be carried out as a randomized

This group will be treated by transcrestal sinus lifting with erythropoietin and albumin PRF gel with simultaneous implant placement.
This group (the Control group) will be treated with transcrestal sinus lifting using albumin PRF gel, with simultaneous implant placement.

RECRUITINGChange in pain scores
pain will be assessed through a 10 point visual analogue scale (VAS). (0-1=none, 2-4=mild, 5-7=moderate, 8-10=severe).
Time frame: up to 14 days
Change in edema
Edema will be assessed as follows: 1. None (no swelling) 2. Mild (intraoral swelling confined to the surgical field) 3. Moderate (extra oral swelling in the surgical zone) 4. Severe (extraoral swelling spreading beyond the surgical zone)
Time frame: up to 14 days
Change in implant stability
implant stability will be assessed using ostell device
Time frame: immediate and 4 months
Change in bone gain
amount of sinus bone gain (SBG) which equals implant protrusion length (IPL) added to Peri-implant sinus bone level (PSBL) which is the distance between the apex of the implant and sinus bone level
Time frame: baseline and 4 months
Change in bone density
it will be assessed using CBCT
Time frame: baseline and 4 months
