In a recent article in the Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery (72: 47-52, 2014), it was shown that sinusitis (infection) and grafting failure was higher in sinus membrane perforation. The overall sinus graft failure rate was 6.7%. It has been shown that surgeon experience is directly rated to the incidence of sinus membrane perforation during sinus lift procedures.
When considering dental implant surgeons, experience matters.
