Maxillary sinus floor elevation is one of the most common methods to provide sufficient height for the placement of dental implants, which can be conducted by various techniques such as the lateral window, the use of osteotomes, Osseo densification (OD), smart lift technique, VES technique, etc. Accordingly, this study concerns reviewing the existing journal articles in the related literature about the usage of OD burs for antrum floor elevation as well as the merits and demerits of this newly-given technique in comparison to other techniques for sinus lift and elevation. In particular, the special design of the flute in Densah burs, in non-cutting mode, compacting by counterclockwise rotation and irrigation pushes the sinus membrane upwards, and by grafting materials, causes the Schneider membrane to elevate. In this technique, by reducing the surgery time and post-surgery complications, the patient's post-operation comfort and bone density increases. The OD technique enhance the implant initial stability and success rate in low-density maxillary bone. Recently this method is considered as an alternative technique to invasive and time-consuming open sinus lift, especially in cases where the maxillary residual bone height is too low.
