Sinus lift
Sinuses are cavities inside the structure of our skull.
When we lose a tooth, the bone around the root area starts to recede.
This can lead to the sinus expanding into the tooth root area.
If you choose to have an Implant …
… there may not be sufficient bone to support it.
Special material can be inserted to encourage bone re-growth and ‘lift’ the sinus.
Over time, the bone will re-grow …
… providing enough bone to support the Implant.
