A sinus lift is an advanced oral surgery procedure offered at Mayfield Ranch Dental. They are vital for individuals seeking dental implants in the upper jaw where natural bone volume may be insufficient due to the proximity of the sinus cavity.
The Purpose of Sinus Lifts:
- Implant Space Creation: Elevates the sinus membrane to create adequate room for dental implants.
- Enhanced Implant Success: Ensures secure implant placement with a stable foundation.
- Treatment for Resorption: Addresses bone loss in the posterior maxilla caused by tooth loss or other factors.
The Sinus Lift Procedure:
- Initial Evaluation: Dr. Jai Kolliboyana and Dr. Juhi Hirpara assess your oral health and determine if a sinus lift is necessary.
- Sinus Membrane Elevation: We carefully lift the sinus membrane to create space for grafting.
- Bone Graft Placement: Graft material is added between the sinus floor and jawbone to promote bone growth.
- Healing and Integration: Over time, the graft material becomes integrated with your natural bone.
Benefits of Sinus Lifts:
- Implant Feasibility: Allows for secure dental implant placement in cases with limited bone volume.
- Oral Function Restoration: Improves chewing and speaking abilities.
- Facial Aesthetic Enhancement: Maintains proper facial contours and restores smile aesthetics.
