SinusAdjust
SinusAdjust
The groundbreaking SinusAdjust initiative aims to create an eco-friendly biomaterial suitable for injection at the bone-membrane junction, promoting sinus elevation and facilitating bone integration. This innovative project endeavors to revolutionize sinus elevation procedures by introducing a sustainable solution that enhances bone tissue integration and ensures optimal patient outcomes.
Significance
Developing SinusAdjust holds immense significance in the realm of dental implantology. With approximately 5 million dental implants placed annually in the United States alone, and a staggering 12 million globally, the demand for effective sinus lift procedures is evident. This necessity arises as around 50% of dental implant patients require sinus lift augmentation due to insufficient bone structure.
Traditional sinus lift procedures come with a significant financial burden, costing between $1,500 to $3,000 per tooth, and pose inherent risks such as infection, bleeding, inflammation, and discomfort. Moreover, complications like sinus membrane tearing and inadequate bone graft integration further underscore the need for safer and more efficient alternatives.
The development of SinusAdjust by AFSAR Lab addresses these challenges head-on, offering a groundbreaking solution that aims to revolutionize sinus lift procedures. With a significant market demand and the potential to mitigate risks and complications associated with traditional methods, SinusAdjust is poised to make a substantial impact in the field of dental implantology.
