Ensure Implant Success with a Sinus Lift
Are you considering dental implants to restore your smile and chewing function, but have been told you might lack sufficient bone in your upper jaw? Many individuals find that over time, the bone in their upper jaw, particularly near the back teeth, isn't quite thick enough to support dental implants securely. This is where a sinus lift comes in – a highly effective and common procedure designed to create the strong, stable foundation your new smile deserves.
Why is a Sinus Lift Necessary?
The area in your upper jaw, above your molars and premolars, is home to your maxillary sinuses – air-filled spaces. When upper teeth are lost, especially for a long time, the bone that once supported them can naturally resorb or shrink away.
When there isn't enough bone height, placing a dental implant directly into the jaw can be risky. Without sufficient bone, the implant lacks stability, could potentially perforate the sinus, and ultimately, your new tooth wouldn't be secure or last. A sinus lift effectively adds the necessary bone volume, transforming an inadequate site into a perfect environment for implant placement.
