the article can be developed much more, and in doing so, the difference between the two methods can (and should) eventually be highlighted. The lateral window technique is the one that can raise the floor ~10mm, while Zimmer is saying how their balloon technique, as an internal technique, can obtain a greater height than conventional osteotome tapping. Be that as it may, it requires a separate apparatus that isn't necessarily worth it. And in regard to the stats, numbers become meaningless because everyone does their procedure differently. Tapping an osteotome to native bone to infracture it will cause lots more perforations than restricting oneself to only tapping bone, and there aren't enough studies out there with enough power to really give us a good idea of what causes what how often. But one day, when the article is improved (and perhaps now that you point it out, I will put it on my radar screen), I will take all of this into consideration when broadening the scope of the currently limited focus. Thanks so much!

346:(2) I think we also need to differentiate for our readers between the (two?) methods used during this surgery to raise the Schneiderian membrane, and to tell them that the risk of perforations to that membrane when the "traditional method" is used is very high, occurring in up to 56% of such surgeries, according to one paper; see following.

The 10mm claim appears be contradicted by what I imagine is a fairly authoritative source, although probably not a citable one. I refer to the website for Zimmer Dental, a firm that makes implants and implant surgery devices, including a balloon device for use in what one of the refs currently in our

The Zimmer Dental website greatly underestimates the conventionally attained increase in sub-sinus bone, but that's because it's comparing itself to osteotome, not lateral window. !There are two types of sinus lifts -- an internal (osteotome) method and an external (lateral window) technique. Sure,

Schneiderian membrane. The Zimmer site goes on to mention that when 1cc

The same Zimmer Dental web page says that the "traditional" ( non-balloon ) method of elevating the
Schneiderian membrane "commonly results in perforations to the up to 56 percent of the time". That's cited on their website to
