Osteotome sinus floor elevation with and without grafting: an animal study in Labrador dogs
Bibliographic record
Abstract
AIM: To evaluate implant stability and histological outcomes after osteotome sinus floor elevation (OSFE) procedure, and to compare new bone formation and implant osseointegration with and without grafting. MATERIAL AND METHODS: OSFE with simultaneous implant placement was conducted bilaterally on 6 Labrador dogs. Twenty-four implants were placed. The right side sinus (Group 1) was grafted with biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP), whereas the left side (Group 2) was left without any grafting materials. The animals were euthanized 8 and 24 weeks after surgery for histological and histomorphometric assessment. Bone-to-implant contact (BIC%), alveolar bone height (ABH), bone density (BD) and grafting material density (GMD) were measured. The implant stability (ISQ) was assessed using resonance frequency analysis (RFA) at implant placement and 1, 2, 4, 8, 12, 24 weeks after surgery. RESULTS: Endo-sinus new bone with direct contact to implant surface were observed in two groups at both time points. ABH showed no difference between groups at both time points. BIC% and BD in Group 2 (40.05%, 35.90%) was higher than those in Group 1 (23.30%,25.59%) at 24 weeks. Significant shrinkage of grafting material was seen in Group 1. The GMD in Group 1 at 8 weeks was 24.35%, while it dropped to 19.90% at 24 weeks. The changing pattern of ISQ for both groups were similar. CONCLUSIONS: Spontaneous new bone formation and better bone-to-implant contact were found for OSFE without grafting. The grafting material application during OSFE procedure showed no advantages in histological results.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
