Author(s) | SRR | Force magnitude | Moving distance through sinus | Duration | Tooth movement type | Bone forming and remodeling of the sinus floor | Side effects | Follow-up and relapse |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Cacciafesta (2001) [17] | type-3 | 50 g | 4–5 mm (half the width of a molar) | unknown | bodily mesially; up-righting | Bone formation took place. | minimal root blunting; No marginal bone loss was visible. | unknown |
Re (2001) [22] | type-4 | 50Â g/mm | 6Â mm | 6Â months | bodily distally (tipping, translation, root movement) | Alveolar bone formation and direct remodeling of the sinus lamina dura occurred. | Pulp vitality, bone support and normal width of the periodontal ligament were maintained. | unknown |
Yao (2004) [19] | type-3 | 150–200 g | 3 mm | 5 months | intrusion, slight distal tipping | The lamina dura followed molar intrusion and bone remodeling was achieved. | Periodontal health and vitality of the teeth were maintained. | 1 year; Periodontal health and vitality of the teeth were well maintained. |
Kravitz (2006) [18] | type-3 | 100–150 g | 4.4 mm | 6 months | intrusion, palatal crown tipping | Radiograph showed intact lamina dura around the first molar within the floor. | no radiographically evident root resorption. | unknown |
Oh (2014) [16] | type-2:15,25,28 type-4:17 | light forces | 25: 6 mm; 28: 10 mm; 10 mm (15–17) | 70 months | 25: bodily distally (tipping, up-righting); 28: bodily mesially (tipping, up-righting); 15: bodily distally; 17: bodily mesially | Signs of sinus wall modeling and new alveolar bone deposition were observed in the direction of tooth movement. | No apparent root resorption was observed, and the alveolar bone level was maintained. | 18 months; Occlusion and normal overjet and overbite were maintained. |
Park (2014) [15] | type-2:14,24 type-3:16,26 | light forces | 14–16: (bodily 2–3 mm, up-righting 15–20°) 24–26: (bodily 1–2 mm, up-righting 20–25°) | 30 months | 14, 24: bodily distally, up-righting; 16, 26: bodily mesially, rotated mesially, up-righting | The floor of the sinus did not displace coronally during orthodontic approximation of these teeth. | Some areas showed signs of apical root resorption. | 1 year; Stable occlusion and the orthodontic treatment results were maintained. |
Saglam (2014) [21] | type-3 | unknown | 7Â mm | unknown | bodily distally | Alveolar bone formation and remodeling of the sinus floor occurred. | Maintained pulp vitality and bone support without loss of the connective tissue attachment. | 2Â years; Acceptable intraoral tissue health was observed after 2Â years. |
Carvalho (2014) [20] | type-3 | mild and moderate | 7Â mm | 6Â months | bodily distally | The cortical bone and sinus mucosa displaced the maxillary sinus floor during bone and periodontal remodeling. | Radiographically evident root resorption was observed. | unknown |
Kuroda (2016) [14] | type-2: 14 type-3:15,16,17,23,24,25,26,27 | 200 g | 4–5 mm | 28 months | bodily distally (tipping, up-righting) | unknown | No serious root resorption. | 5 years; Occlusion and facial profile were stable. |
