What Is a Sinus Lift?
A sinus lift is a specialized procedure that increases the amount of bone in the upper jaw (posterior maxilla) to support dental implants. When there is not enough natural bone, often due to bone loss or the natural position of the sinus, this procedure creates a stable foundation for long-lasting implant placement.
Why is a Sinus Lift Needed?
After tooth loss, the bone in the upper jaw can shrink over time. In some cases, the maxillary sinus expands into this space, leaving insufficient bone height for dental implants. A sinus lift safely elevates the sinus membrane and places bone graft material to restore the necessary volume.
Requirements / Pre-Operative Needs
Before a sinus lift procedure, patients may be asked to provide:
• a complete medical and dental history
• current medications and supplements
• known allergies
• history of sinus problems or sinus surgery
• history of smoking or tobacco use
• previous dental imaging or treatment records, if available
Imaging is commonly used to evaluate bone height, sinus position, and the treatment area.
Specific instructions may vary depending on the patient’s health, medications, and the type of procedure being considered.
