Abstract: Maxillary sinus floor elevation is an effective method to solve the deficiency of vertical bone height in the maxillary posterior tooth area in elderly patients.

Therefore, proper prevention and management of these complications are important for increasing the long-term success rate of implants. This article reviews the prevention and management of complications such as intraoperative hemorrhage, perforation of maxillary sinus mucosa, maxillary sinusitis, concussion, and benign paroxysmal positional vertigo.
