Panoramic radiography of Auto-FDT block with PRP. a Preoperative panoramic view showing severe atrophy in the Lt. maxillary posterior area. b Immediate postoperative panoramic view. Image showing implants placement and Auto-FDT block graft in the sinus area and empty space (radiolucent space) between the Auto-FDT block and residual alveolar bone (black arrow). c The graft (after 6 months) showing increased radiopaque in the sinus area (black arrow). d After 2 years, there was greater radiopacity in the grafted sinus area using block Auto-FDT and PRP [the final prosthesis without resorption compared with the panoramic view during the uncovering surgery (c, black arrow)]. The implants were successful and were fully surrounded by bone. Residual alveolar bone (white solid line) and sinus graft height (white dotted line and white arrow)
