Osteotomy is initiated as palatal as possible with
1.2 mm pilot drill, followed by 1.0/1.6 mm bone expander (Fig.2). There is
more than 40 Ncm when 1.7/3.1 mm bone expander is being used.
Drills are used for further osteotomy for a 4.0 mm implant. Sinus lift is
finished using autogenous bone and
Osteogen as well as 2.4/3.7 mm bone expander 2 mm
deeper than before (Fig.3).
