A randomized clinical trial evaluating maxillary sinus augmentation with different particle sizes of demineralized bovine bone mineral: histological and immunohistochemical analysis

This study was performed to investigate sinus floor augmentation with two different particle sizes of demineralized bovine bone mineral (DBBM) by means of histological and immunohistochemical (IHC) analysis. A randomized clinical trial was conducted involving 10 individuals requiring two-stage bilateral maxillary sinus augmentation for implant installation. The patients were randomly divided into two groups following a split-mouth design: the maxillary sinus on one side was filled with small-sized particles (0.25–1mm) and on the contralateral side with large-sized particles (1–2mm).
