Assessment of dentists’ subjective satisfaction with a newly developed device for maxillary sinus membrane elevation by the crestal approach

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Purpose: The purposes of this study were to assess the dentists’ subjective satisfaction with the crestal approach sinus (CAS)kit, a device for maxillary sinus membrane elevation by the crestal approach using a special drilling system and hydraulic pressure,and to summarize the subjective satisfaction of dental implants placed after a sinus lift procedure with the CAS kit.
Methods: Thirty dental clinicians who had experience with dental implant placement after a sinus lift procedure with theCAS kit from June 2010 to May 2012 were included in this study. The questionnaire for the evaluation of the dentists’ subjectivesatisfaction with the CAS kit was sent to the respondents and returned. The questionnaire was composed of two main parts.
The first part was related to the sinus membrane perforation rate. The second part was related to the dentists’ subjective satisfactionwith the CAS kit.
Results: A total of 28 dentists answered the questionnaire. Among 924 implant cases, sinus membrane perforation occurredin 38 cases (4.1%). Among the 28 dentists, 26 dentists (92.9%) were satisfied or very satisfied with the CAS kit. In particular, 24dentists (85.7%) reported that safety, cutting performance, and user-friendliness of the CAS drill were advantages of the CASkit. However, 7 dentists (25%) did not routinely use the hydraulic lifter for sinus membrane elevation.
Conclusions: From the survey, it was shown that the respondents were generally satisfied with the CAS kit and that the cuttingperformance and safety of the drill component were considered strengths of the CAS kit.
