Materials and methods : Bone plate repositioned over the antrostomy after sinus floor elevation: an experimental study in sheep [4]
The percentages of the new mineralised bone, soft or connective tissue, pure graft, graft interpenetrated by bone, and remnants of cyanoacrylate were evaluated. The total tissue percentages in the elevated space that included submucosa, middle, base, and sub-window regions were also calculated.
Mean values and standard deviations (SDs) as well as the 25th, 50th (median), and 75th percentiles were calculated for each outcome variable. The main outcome variable was the percentage of the new mineralised bone within the sinus.
The IBM SPSS statistics software (IBM Inc., Chicago, IL, USA) was adopted for analyses. The Wilcoxon test was used to assess the differences between the repositioned bone plate and collagen membrane sites. The level of significance was set at α = 0.05.
