![عکس صفحه اول مقاله: Orthodontic distalization with rigid plate fixation for anchorage after bone grafting and maxillary sinus lifting Orthodontic distalization with rigid plate fixation for anchorage after bone grafting and maxillary sinus lifting](/preview/png/3117970.png)
A 68-year-old woman was treated with an autogenous particulated bone graft from the anterior part of the mandible to elevate the right maxillary sinus floor, which was next to the alveolar ridge of an edentulous area, to facilitate dental implant placement. A rigid plate for anchorage was placed into the zygomatic bone. The maxillary right canine and the premolars were moved distally 6 months after the implant was placed and osteointegration of the bone graft had occurred. The Class II relationship was corrected. After tooth movement, the patient underwent multislice computed tomography to determine the mineral density of the bone graft and compare it with the opposite side of the maxilla. The mineral density showed values above normal for the posterior segment of the maxilla. Although the patient was taking bisphosphonate for treatment of osteoporosis, no related complications were noted during treatment.
