When applying the maxillary sinus elevation technique using the lateral window, possible situations were classified into four: (A) two or more sites for implants are required for maxillary sinus augmentation, (B) a single implant is required when there are no adjacent teeth, (C) a single implant is required when one adjacent tooth is present at the mesial or distal area, and (D) a single implant is required when both mesial and distal adjacent teeth are present. In order to verify whether this classification can be used in all situations, 76 patients who underwent maxillary sinus elevation with a lateral window were selected and investigated. Of them, 47 (62%) were included in Group A, 9 (12%) in Group B, 8 (11%) in Group C, and 12 (15%) in Group D. Lateral window designing in the lateral approach of sinus augmentation can be classified into four clinical situations. There were no unclassified cases. This classification and window positioning method can be applied to most cases.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ijerph17176335","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,8,31]],"date-time":"2020-08-31T08:11:19Z","timestamp":1598861479000},"page":"6335","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":12,"title":["Lateral Window Design for Maxillary Sinus Graft Based on the Implant Position"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"17","author":[{"given":"Kyeong-Jun","family":"Cheon","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Oral &amp; Maxillofacial Surgery, Dentistry, Sacred Heart Hospital, Hallym University College of Medicine, Anyang 14068, Korea"},{"name":"Research Center of Clinical Dentistry, Graduate School of Clinical Dentistry, Hallym University, Chuncheon 24252, Korea"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4446-6772","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Byoung-Eun","family":"Yang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Oral &amp; Maxillofacial Surgery, Dentistry, Sacred Heart Hospital, Hallym University College of Medicine, Anyang 14068, Korea"},{"name":"Research Center of Clinical Dentistry, Graduate School of Clinical Dentistry, Hallym University, Chuncheon 24252, Korea"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Seoung-Won","family":"Cho","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Oral &amp; Maxillofacial Surgery, Dentistry, Sacred Heart Hospital, Hallym University College of Medicine, Anyang 14068, Korea"},{"name":"Research Center of Clinical Dentistry, Graduate School of Clinical Dentistry, Hallym University, Chuncheon 24252, Korea"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sung-Min","family":"Chung","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"R&amp;D Center, Genoss, Suwon 16229, Korea"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0739-7971","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Soo-Hwan","family":"Byun","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Oral &amp; Maxillofacial Surgery, Dentistry, Sacred Heart Hospital, Hallym University College of Medicine, Anyang 14068, Korea"},{"name":"Research Center of Clinical Dentistry, Graduate School of Clinical Dentistry, Hallym University, Chuncheon 24252, Korea"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,8,31]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","first-page":"165","article-title":"Survival anlaysis of dental implants in maxillary and mandibular molar regions; a 4\u20135 year report","volume":"37","year":"2007","journal-title":"Periodontal Implant Sci."},{"key":"ref_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"402","DOI":"10.1097\/ID.0b013e3181b4af93","article-title":"The Influence of Remaining Alveolar Bone Upon Lateral Window Sinus Augmentation Implant Survival","volume":"18","author":"Rios","year":"2009","journal-title":"Implant Dent."},{"key":"ref_3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"2","DOI":"10.1186\/s40902-016-0100-2","article-title":"The factors that influence postoperative stability of the dental implants in posterior edentulous maxilla","volume":"39","author":"Kim","year":"2017","journal-title":"Maxillofac.
