This study aims to investigate the effects of various external sinus lifting techniques on patient comfort and perioperative complications.
Patients who met the inclusion criteria and were admitted for posterior maxilla rehabilitation participated in this prospective, randomized, controlled clinical trial. The three methods used to lift the sinuses were randomized: piezosurgery using a surgical guide, a drill specifically made for lateral sinus lift, and traditional drills. Recorded were the duration of the procedure, accessibility, and intraoperative complications. During the first week following surgery, analgesic intake and pain using a visual analog scale (VAS) were assessed assessed. Preoperatively and on the second and seventh postoperative days, edema was assessed. Preoperatively and on the seventh postoperative day, the patient's quality of life using the OHIP-14 questionnaire, experiences, and expectations were evaluated.

| from 6 hours to postoperative 7 days |
| Analgesic Consumption | need for analgesics | from 6 hours to 7 days postoperatively |
| Edema | Swelling after surgery measurements collected of a anatomical locations on the face that served as reference points. Reference points included the tragus, alare, lateral corner of the eye, gonion, soft tissue pogonion, and external corner of the mouth. The average of each measurement was used to calculate the edema level. | on the 2nd and 7th days |
| Quality of Life | The OHIP-14 used to measure quality of life. Scores ranged from 0 (no impact) to 56 (all oral health concerns encountered extremely frequently). It was scored as follows: Never (0 points); Seldom (1 point); Sometimes (2 points); Frequently (3 points); and Very frequently (4 points). | preoperatively and on postoperative day 7 |
| Surgeon;s Comfort | The comfort of the access to the operation site evaluated by the surgeon on a 4-point scale (0, very poor visibility; 1, fair visibility; 2, good visibility; 3, excellent visibility) | Immediately after surgery |
