Introduction: The sinus lift surgery with simultaneous implant placement (SLWSIP) is in constant evolution. The use of bone grafts in the SLWSIP surgery has long been studied. However, there is now a new scientific technique known as the graftless technique whith good outcomes. Objectives: The aim of the study is to assess the interest and efficiency of the biomaterials used in the sinus lift with simultaneous implant placement. We want to set by side to side the graftless technique with bones substitutes one in order to compare their efficacity and to identify which one could be the preferable technique to increase the retention of the implant. Material and Methods: A bibliographic search was conducted in the PUBMED database, between the years 2013 and 2023, in English, on human beings, using the following key words: (sinus lift) AND (implant placement) AND (bone substitute). Results: The different search identified 590 studies, of which 38 were considered relevant to this study. Discussion: Atrophy of the posterior maxilla can be successfully rehabilitated using the the SLWSIP with the graftless technique, this technique could offer patients a less invasive surgery compared to traditional surgery, implying a number of advantages such as: less risk of infection, less risk of morbidity, it is cheaper and thus better accepted by the patient. Conclusion: The results of this articles are very promising but its use is still recent in dental surgeries, further studies are needed to improve this surgery technique.
