Abstract: As an evidence-based technique, maxillary sinus floor elevation can augment the available bone height for implant placement via elevating the sinus mucosa to provide bone regeneration space. This technique can be divided into lateral window technique and trans-crestal technique, which can be influenced by different risk factors such as membrane thickness, the sinus anatomy, and sinus lesions. Among all the risk factors, sinus mucosa cysts may increase the level of treatment difficulty and the surgery complications. The treatment option for such lesion during maxillary sinus floor elevation is still controversial, this paper summarized different treatment approaches to place implants in patients with sinus mucosa cysts when sinus floor elevation is needed.

Key words: dental implants, maxillary sinus, sinus floor elevation, maxillary sinus cyst
