What Is A Sinus Lift?
If sinuses are very large and in the way, and implants cannot be placed, bone grafting is done first underneath the sinus. The width and height of the bone is expanded thereby creating the necessary bone for the implant. A 7 month period allows the bone graft to mature. Then, the implants are placed. A variety of graft materials can be used in these procedures. Success rate is generally very high with sinus lift procedures.
