Advanced restorative dentistry requires a stable foundation of healthy bone to support long-term tooth replacement. Our specialists perform sinus augmentation to increase bone height in the posterior maxilla, enabling the successful placement of dental implants in patients with significant bone loss.

Patients seeking to replace upper molars often discover that the maxillary sinus has expanded downward over time. This natural process, combined with bone resorption, leaves insufficient vertical height for a stable implant. We address this challenge with a sinus lift, a sophisticated grafting procedure. Our surgeons utilize Piezosurgery osteotomy tools to gently modify bone without harming soft tissues.

Restoring the jaw’s silver-level density allows patients to regain full chewing function and facial aesthetics.

Engineering Bone with Platelet-Rich Fibrin

The success of a graft depends on the body’s ability to transform grafting material into living bone. We enhance this biological transition using Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) therapy. This technology concentrates the healing elements of your blood to create a bioactive scaffold. By improving the local environment for osseointegration, we ensure the dental implants remain anchored for a lifetime. Every procedure is performed within our hospital-grade surgical suite to maintain the highest levels of patient safety.

Common Questions About Sinus Augmentation

Is a sinus lift a painful procedure? We use advanced IV sedation and local numbing to make sure you are completely relaxed. Most patients describe the sensation as a bit of pressure rather than sharp pain. You are in very experienced hands here.

How do I know if I need this before getting implants? We use a high-definition CBCT scan to look at your bone levels in 3D. If the bone is too thin to support an implant safely, we will discuss a lift as the best way to protect your investment. It is a very common and predictable step.
