All patients who received lateral sinus floor elevation using this new piezosurgery technique, were selected. The personal file of each patient was retrieved and the following data were taken: age, sex, smoking habits, occurrence of per-operative complications (mucosal perforation, hemorrhage) and post-operative infectious complications. Pre-operative CBCT of included patients were all performed using the same Newtom VGI radiographic machine and collected from the radiology unit at the Faculty of Dental Medicine at Saint Joseph University of Beirut. The measurement of the studied factors was performed on Newtom VGI viewer software, by two evaluators J.B. and A.M.
