Sinus Lift Enhancing Your Implant Success
What Is a Sinus Lift?
The Benefits of a Sinus Lift
Increased Bone Volume
A sinus lift provides additional bone structure, enabling the placement of dental implants in areas previously deemed unsuitable.
Improved Implant Stability
With sufficient bone density, implants can be securely anchored, increasing their longevity and functionality.
Restoration of Facial Contours
Rebuilding bone in the upper jaw helps maintain facial aesthetics, preventing the sunken appearance often associated with bone loss.
The Treatment Process
Initial Consultation
Your treatment begins with a detailed examination, including X-rays or 3D imaging, to evaluate your bone structure and discuss your needs.
Surgical Procedure
Under local anaesthesia, a small incision is made in the gum tissue, allowing access to the sinus membrane. The membrane is gently lifted, and bone graft material is placed in the space created.
Healing Period
After the procedure, a healing period of several months is required for the bone graft to integrate with your jawbone.
Implant Placement
Once the area has healed and sufficient bone is established, dental implants can be safely placed in the new bone.
Frequently Asked Questions About Sinus Lift
Most patients experience minimal discomfort during and after the procedure. Local anaesthesia and sedation techniques are used to ensure your comfort.
Initial healing occurs within a few days, but the full integration of the bone graft can take several months before implants can be placed.
Not necessarily. A sinus lift is only required if there is inadequate bone height in the upper jaw. Our dentist will advise you of your specific needs during the consultation.
With proper care and oral hygiene, the results of a sinus lift can last for many years, providing a stable foundation for your implants.
