Sinus lift

Sinus lift is a surgical procedure aimed at increasing bone volume in the upper jaw for subsequent dental implant placement. This procedure is performed when bone is insufficient, creating a reliable foundation for implant placement and long-lasting prosthetics.

When is sinus lift required?

• When there is insufficient bone tissue in the upper jaw area.
• If the distance between the maxillary sinus and the gum is too small to install an implant.
• In case of bone atrophy after tooth extraction.
• When planning implantation to increase its success.
• If restoration of chewing function and aesthetics of the dentition is required.

How does the procedure work?

1. Diagnostics – X-ray or CT scan is performed to assess the condition of the bone.
2. Anesthesia – local anesthesia is administered for comfortable treatment.
3. Access to the maxillary sinus - the doctor makes a small incision in the gum and lifts the mucous membrane of the sinus.
4. Bone grafting – a special bone filler is injected into the area of bone deficiency.
5. Suturing and rehabilitation – the gums are sutured, the patient receives care instructions.

Types of sinus lift

• Open sinus lift – performed when there is a significant lack of bone tissue and requires longer healing.
• Closed sinus lift is a less invasive method, performed simultaneously with implant placement.
