FAQs
What is sinus augmentation and why is it needed?
Sinus augmentation, or sinus lift, is a surgical procedure that adds bone to the upper jaw in the area of the molars and premolars. It’s usually needed when there isn’t enough bone height to support dental implants due to bone loss or sinus expansion.
Is the sinus lift procedure painful?
We use local anesthesia and sedation options to ensure comfort during the procedure. Some mild swelling or discomfort afterward is normal but can be managed with recommended medications.
How long does it take to recover from sinus augmentation?
Recovery typically takes a few days for initial healing, but full bone integration may take 4 to 9 months before implants can be placed.
Are there any risks or complications?
Like any surgery, sinus lifts carry some risks such as infection or sinus membrane perforation. However, careful planning and skilled techniques minimize these risks significantly.
Can I get implants right after sinus augmentation?
In most cases, implants are placed after the graft has healed and integrated with your bone. Occasionally, simultaneous implant placement is possible depending on your bone condition.
