Discover the Benefits of a Sinus Lift

A sinus lift is a specialized procedure that increases bone height in the upper jaw, providing a stable foundation for dental implants. At Westlake Family Dentistry, we offer both vertical and lateral sinus lifts to accommodate different levels of bone loss.

Vertical sinus lifts are less invasive and ideal for patients needing only a small amount of additional bone. In contrast, lateral sinus lifts are recommended for more extensive bone grafting.

Both approaches gently raise the sinus membrane, so your dentist can place material to encourage new bone growth.

Our experienced team will evaluate your unique needs to determine the best method, ensuring long-term stability for your dental implants.

Frequently Asked Questions About Sinus Lifts

What is a sinus lift?

A sinus lift is a type of bone graft that adds new bone to your upper jaw so that you can get dental implants inserted. Your dentist will place synthetic bone material in your upper jaw that will stimulate the growth of new bone cells. The floor of your sinuses is raised slightly to prepare for the bone growth, giving the procedure its name.

When are sinus lifts necessary?

Sinus lifts are necessary when the upper jaw has insufficient bone volume to support dental implants. This can occur due to bone loss from periodontal disease, tooth loss, or natural bone resorption. The sinus lift procedure creates additional space in the upper jaw by lifting the sinus membrane and adding bone graft material. It builds a stronger foundation for the dental implant to be placed, resulting in successful and long-lasting results.

Do sinus lifts work?

A sinus lift is an effective way to prepare the upper jaw to receive dental implants. If your jawbone is not thick enough to support implants, a sinus lift will raise the floor of the sinuses and stimulate the growth of new bone cells. In a few months, your upper jaw will be ready for implants and the replacement teeth they support.
