All of the assessed grafts are viable options for the addressed intervention. The use of some material is justified to maintain the sinus volume and allow bone formation in the apical implant site under the sinus membrane. Longer chair time and donor site morbidity should be considered when choosing autogenous bone. Synthetic biphasic materials can be selected for this intervention due to superior bone-to-implant contact compared to deproteinized bovine bone.
