Sinus Lift: A Surgical Procedure for Safe and Effective Dental Implant Placement
A sinus lift is an advanced surgical procedure performed when the upper jaw is not suitable for dental implant placement due to the proximity of the sinuses. This process ensures a stable foundation for the implant by adding additional bone tissue to the sinus area and is carried out by a specialist.
Sinus lift surgery with advanced technologies is performed with responsibility and quality. Dr. Ilan Price guarantees innovation and international excellence in both open and closed sinus lift procedures. Contact us for consultation and appointment scheduling!
Why Is a Sinus Lift Performed?
Preparation for the process
Before starting the procedure, several tests and preparations are required:
- General Medical Assessment: You may be asked to undergo a general check-up with your family doctor.
- Imaging Tests: X-rays and, in some cases, a CT scan to ensure precise fitting of the implant to the oral structure.
- Choosing the Bone Source for the Graft: The bone for the graft can come from several sources, including the patient’s own bone tissue or another biological source.
the course of the process
A sinus lift is typically performed under local anesthesia:
- Making an Incision in the Jaw: After anesthesia, the surgeon will make a precise incision in the upper jaw area.
- Placing the Bone Graft: The new bone tissue will be carefully inserted into the sinus area.
- Closing the Incision: After the grafting, the incision will be professionally sutured.
The recovery period and continued treatment
After the procedure, you will need a recovery period of between three to six months, during which the implanted bone will integrate and serve as a stable base for the dental implants.
After completing the treatment, you will receive detailed instructions from your treating physician. It is crucial to follow these instructions to ensure a swift recovery and optimal results.
A sinus lift is an essential procedure in many cases for safely and effectively placing dental implants. Thanks to the procedure, excellent aesthetic and functional outcomes can be achieved, even in cases of bone tissue deficiency in the upper jaw.
