Abstract: Minimally invasive sinus lift techniques are increasingly preferred for their reduced morbidity and faster recovery. Implant placement in the posterior maxilla becomes challenging with limited residual bone height. Although direct sinus lift procedures are effective, their invasiveness restricts routine use. Advances such as the Magnetic Mallet and hydraulic sinus lift have introduced less invasive, predictable alternatives. This case report describes a minimally invasive sinus lift using a combination of Magnetic Mallet and hydraulic techniques in a patient with inadequate vertical bone height. The combined approach enabled precise sinus membrane elevation, minimized surgical trauma, and achieved successful implant placement with favourable postoperative healing, highlighting the synergistic benefits of these modern techniques.
