Bone Grafting / Sinus Lifting

Bone grafting and sinus lifting are dental procedures designed to prepare the jaw for implants, especially when there isn’t enough bone to support them. Bone grafting involves transplanting bone material to the jaw to create a stronger foundation for dental implants. This can be done using the patient’s own bone, donor bone, or synthetic materials.

Sinus lifting is a specific type of bone grafting that raises the sinus floor and adds bone to the upper jaw, particularly when the back molars are missing. As teeth are lost, the surrounding bone can shrink, and the sinus may expand into that space, making implants more challenging. A sinus lift creates the necessary bone height to successfully place implants.

Both procedures are often performed simultaneously with dental implant placement, but they can also be done separately. Recovery typically involves some swelling and discomfort, but these can be managed with medication. The procedures are essential for ensuring the stability and longevity of dental implants, allowing patients to enjoy improved oral function and a confident smile.
