Sinus Lift & Bone Grafting

Missing bone in your upper jaw?

It can make dental implants difficult or impossible without extra steps.

A sinus lift is a common procedure to add bone where your upper jaw meets the sinus.

Bone grafting is used to rebuild or strengthen the jawbone.

Together, these techniques can create a solid foundation for successful implants.

Without enough bone, implants may fail or be unstable.

That’s why your dentist may recommend a sinus lift or bone graft before implant placement.

The procedures are done under local anaesthetic, IV sedation, or general anaesthetic.

Healing usually takes a few months before implants can be placed.
