What is a sinus lift?

A sinus lift, also known as sinus augmentation, is a surgical procedure that involves elevating the sinus membrane and placing bone graft material beneath it. This procedure is often necessary when there is insufficient bone height in the upper jaw, or the sinuses are too close to the jaw, for dental implant placement.

Why do I need a sinus lift?

A sinus lift may be recommended if:

‍‍This procedure helps ensure that dental implants have a solid foundation, enhancing their longevity and functionality.

You have bone loss due to periodontal disease.
You’ve experienced bone shrinkage following tooth loss.
You require dental implants in your upper jaw but lack sufficient bone quality or quantity.

What to expect during your sinus lift procedure

Consultation and Planning: Dr. Hassan will conduct a detailed examination, including X-rays or 3D imaging, to plan the procedure precisely.
Procedure: Under local anesthesia and sedation, a small incision is made in the gum tissue where the back of your upper jaw meets your molars. The tissue is raised, and the underlying bone is prepared for the graft.
Bone Grafting: Bone graft material is then added to raise the floor of the sinus cavity, allowing for new bone formation.
Recovery: Instructions for aftercare will be provided to ensure a smooth recovery. Healing generally takes several months, during which the bone material integrates with your jaw.

Frequently asked questions

Is a sinus lift safe?



Yes, sinus lift surgeries are safely performed by specialists like Dr. Hassan, who use advanced techniques and equipment to ensure the best outcomes.

How long is the recovery from a sinus lift?



Initial healing typically takes about 7-10 days, but the complete process of bone integration might take several months. During this time, patients are advised to follow specific care instructions to support successful healing.

Will I feel pain during the sinus lift procedure?



The procedure is performed under local anesthesia and sedation, so you shouldn’t feel pain during the surgery. Some discomfort and swelling are normal afterwards but can be managed with medications prescribed by Dr. Hassan.

How does a sinus lift improve dental implant success?



By increasing the amount of bone in the upper jaw, a sinus lift provides a stronger, more stable base for dental implants, which is crucial for their longevity and effectiveness.
