An essential element to implant success is the quality and quantity of the bone where the implant is to be placed.

The upper jaw has traditionally been one of the most difficult regions to successfully place dental implants because of not enough bone mass and quality as well as close proximity to the sinus. If you have lost bone in this region due to reasons as periodontial disease or tooth loss, you may be left without enough bone to place implants. 

Sinus lift surgery can help correct this issue by raising the sinus floor and developing bone for the replacement of dental implants. Various techniques can be applied and accept for new bone to form. Then a small circle is cut into the bone. This bony piece is lifted into the sinus cavity, much like a trap door, and the space underneath is fill with bone graft material.

Lastly, the incision is closed and healing is allowed to take place. Depending you own demands, the bone often will be allowed to develop from 4 – 8 months before implants can be placed. After the implants are placed, an additional healing period is required. In several cases, the implants can be placed at the same time the sinus augmented.

Undergoing sinus lift surgery has been shown to greatly increase your chances for successful implants that can last for years to come. Many patients experience minimal discomfort during this procedure.
