Human histologic evidence of integration of functionally loaded hydroxyapatite-coated implants placed simultaneously with sinus augmentation: a case report 2 1/2 years postplacement.

This article histologically and clinically presents a case report showing two retrieved implants that were placed simultaneously at the time of the antral augmentation. These implants were retrieved 2.5 years after placement and 2 years after loading. To our knowledge, this is the first human histological case report of implants that were simultaneously placed with a sinus lift and loaded.
