Sinus Lift

What is Sinus Lift?

A sinus lift is a specialized surgical procedure that adds bone to the upper jaw, creating a stable foundation for dental implants. At Line Dental Aloha, we perform sinus lifts to enhance bone density and ensure the long-term success of dental implants, especially in cases where there isn’t sufficient bone height in the upper jaw.

For successful dental implant placement, adequate bone support is essential. However, due to factors such as tooth loss, natural bone resorption, or anatomy, the upper jaw may not always have enough bone height to securely anchor an implant. A sinus lift increases bone volume, providing a solid base for the implant and helping prevent complications.

Benefits of Sinus Lift

Enables Implant Placement: A sinus lift provides the necessary bone height for successful dental implant placement in the upper jaw.

Long-Term Stability: By increasing bone density, this procedure enhances the stability and longevity of implants.
Prevents Bone Loss: Adding bone to the upper jaw helps prevent further bone resorption, preserving facial structure and oral health.

What to expect during procedure

The sinus lift procedure involves several key steps:

Preparation: We begin with a thorough examination, including imaging, to assess your sinus cavity and determine the amount of bone needed.
Bone Grafting: During the procedure, the sinus membrane is carefully lifted, and bone graft material is placed into the area to increase bone height.
Healing Process: After the graft is placed, the area is allowed to heal, typically over several months, as the new bone integrates with the natural bone in your jaw.
