The use of biomaterials for the elevation of the maxillary sinus floor allows the installation of metallic implants and enables the aesthetic and functional rehabilitation of patients with maxillary tooth loss. Currently there are different biomaterials that can be used in these procedures with different osteoinductive and osteoconductive properties. It is fundamental to the dentist thoroughly knowledge of each of these biomaterials in order to properly indicate treatment. Thus, the aim of this study was to conduct a literature review describing the types most commonly used biomaterials in dentistry.
