A sinus lift is a dental procedure that adds bone to the upper jaw in the molar and premolar areas, making it possible to place dental implants where bone height is insufficient or sinuses are too close to the jaw. By lifting the sinus membrane and adding bone graft material, it creates a secure foundation for implants. This addresses a key challenge in restorative dentistry, allowing patients with bone loss to receive implants, enhancing their dental function and smile aesthetics. Essentially, it provides a solution for those previously deemed unsuitable for implants, paving the way for improved oral health.

Waiting to replace a missing tooth can cause serious consequences. Soon after you lose a tooth, bone resorption begins, making it difficult to place dental implants properly.

Bone grafting is one of the first steps in widening your tooth replacement choices. Get in touch to learn more about how we can restore your smile.

This procedure is a key intervention for preserving oral health, ensuring that impacted teeth do not compromise dental well-being or contribute to more complex issues.
