At Health Medical Center, we offer sinus lift procedures to improve the success of dental implants for patients with insufficient bone height in the upper jaw. Our skilled dental team is dedicated to providing personalized care and advanced solutions for optimal dental health.
What is a Sinus Lift?
A sinus lift, also known as a sinus augmentation, is a surgical procedure designed to increase the amount of bone in the upper jaw, specifically in the area of the molars and premolars. This procedure involves elevating the sinus membrane and placing bone graft material to create adequate space for dental implants. It is often recommended for patients who have experienced bone loss due to tooth loss, periodontal disease, or other factors.

The Sinus Lift Process
The sinus lift procedure typically involves the following steps:

- Anesthesia: Local anesthesia or sedation will be administered to ensure your comfort during the procedure.
- Surgical Procedure: A small incision is made in the gum tissue to access the jawbone. The sinus membrane is gently lifted, and bone graft material is placed into the newly created space.
- Healing Period: The graft will integrate with the bone over several months, allowing for sufficient bone density for future implant placement.
Benefits of a Sinus Lift
A sinus lift offers several benefits for patients seeking dental implants:
- Increased Bone Volume: The procedure creates enough bone to support dental implants, improving their success rates.
- Restored Functionality: With adequate bone support, you can regain the ability to chew and speak comfortably.
- Long-Term Solution: A successful sinus lift paves the way for durable, long-lasting dental implants.
