Safe and Permanent Solutions Before Implants at DehaDent

A sinus lift (sinus lift) is an effective surgical procedure aimed at increasing the amount of bone in the upper jaw, performed on patients who lack sufficient bone volume for implant treatment. At DehaDent Oral and Dental Health Clinic, we safely perform this procedure using advanced technology equipment and our experienced jaw surgeons.

Why Is a Sinus Lift Necessary?

Over time, bone loss can occur in the posterior region of the upper jaw (the area where the molars are located). Especially after tooth loss, sinus cavities widen and the jawbone thins. This can lead to insufficient bone height for implant placement.

A sinus lift elevates the sinus floor, allowing bone graft (bone graft) to be placed in this area. This creates a solid and permanent foundation for implant treatment.

When is it Used?

• If bone volume in the upper jaw is insufficient,
• If tooth loss has been present for a long time,
• If sinus cavities are widened,
• If the bone height in the implant area is less than 5 mm,
• If there has been a previous unsuccessful implant experience,

In these cases, a sinus lift is critical to implant success.

How is a Sinus Lift Performed?

1. Detailed Examination and Imaging
The sinus cavities and bone thickness are measured in millimeters using 3D dental tomography. Either the open (lateral) or closed (transalveolar) technique is preferred depending on the need.

2. Surgical Intervention
The sinus membrane is carefully elevated. A bone graft (bone meal) is placed in the resulting space. In some cases, the implant can be placed during the same session.

3. Healing Process
The ossification process of the bone graft takes approximately 4-6 months. At the end of this period, the implant is ready for placement.

• Follow-up visits should not be neglected

Implant Success Increases After Sinus Lift

A sinus lift significantly contributes to the longevity and durability of implant treatment. Many patients who were previously unable to have implants due to insufficient bone volume are now experiencing successful implant treatment thanks to this procedure.
