The purpose of the present study was to assess factors affecting the decision to rehabilitate the posterior maxilla following surgical closure of OAC\/OAF.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>Consecutive patients at a single center. A structured form served to collect the data. The differences between groups (cases with versus cases without restoration) were assessed statistically.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>A total of 58\/121 responding individuals (62.1% men). Average age 51.57 years. Average waiting time prior to restoration 10.34 months. Most (51.7%) healthy. Most had a dental etiology (60.3%). Thirty\u2010nine (67.2%) patients had a restoration of the posterior maxilla. Most of the patients responded that the reason not to do any restoration is the fear of failure (65.5%). Most of the patients completed the restoration procedure in a private clinic (87.2%). Only one patient (2.6%) reported a complication. Approximately half of the patients had implant supported prosthesis (ISP) following sinus augmentation (48.3%) with delayed implant placement. Most of the patients responded that the reason not to have ISP was the fear of failure (72.7%), and the rest responded because of financial issues (27.3%). For tooth supported restoration, most of the patients responded removable (90.9%).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>Surgeons generally wait 6\u201012 months following surgical treatment of OAC\/OAF prior to reconstruction with ISP. The chance for complications is low. Healthy women after dental induced OAC\/OAF have the highest chances to seek for ISP in such circumstances.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/jper.21-0288","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,8,16]],"date-time":"2021-08-16T02:39:08Z","timestamp":1629081548000},"page":"656-661","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Factors
