Sinus lift surgery, also known as sinus augmentation, is a procedure designed to increase bone volume in the upper jaw, particularly in areas where bone loss has occurred due to factors such as periodontal disease or tooth loss. This augmentation is essential for providing a stable foundation for dental implants. At London Dental Specialists, our sinus lift process is meticulously structured to ensure optimal outcomes:
1. **Consultation & Assessment**: We begin with a comprehensive evaluation, including X-rays or CT scans, to assess your jawbone and sinus health.
2. **Custom Treatment Plan**: Based on the assessment, we develop a personalised plan tailored to your specific needs.
3. **Surgical Procedure**: During the surgery, the sinus membrane is carefully lifted, and bone graft material is placed to enhance bone density.
4. **Post-Surgical Care**: We provide detailed aftercare instructions and schedule follow-up appointments to monitor healing and ensure the success of the procedure.
This structured approach ensures that each step is performed with precision, leading to successful dental implant placement and improved oral health.

A sinus lift surgery (also called sinus augmentation) is a dental procedure that adds bone to your upper jaw in the area of your molars and premolars. During the procedure, the sinus membrane is lifted upward to make space for the additional bone. This procedure is typically performed when there is insufficient bone height in the upper jaw for dental implants, often due to bone loss from periodontal disease or tooth loss.
Sinus lift surgery is considered an extremely safe procedure when performed by qualified specialists like those at London Dental Specialists. However, as with any surgery, risks are involved and complications can occur. The most significant risk is the sinus membrane becoming pierced or torn during the procedure. Our specialists take meticulous care to minimise this risk through careful planning and precise surgical techniques.
During the sinus lift procedure, you will be under local anaesthesia, so you won't feel pain. Once the anaesthesia wears off, some discomfort can be expected, but the intensity varies from patient to patient. In the immediate aftermath, mild to moderate pain is normal and usually manageable with over-the-counter pain relievers or prescribed medications. Most patients report that the discomfort is less than they anticipated and subsides significantly within 3-5 days.
Recovery from a sinus lift typically follows this timeline:
The complete healing and bone integration process takes several months, during which time our team at London Dental Specialists will monitor your progress carefully.
At London Dental Specialists, the cost of a sinus lift varies depending on the complexity of the case and whether one or both sides require treatment. Typically, prices range from £1,200 to £2,500 per side. We provide detailed treatment plans with transparent pricing during your consultation. We also offer various payment options to help make this important procedure accessible.
Alternatives to traditional sinus lift surgery may include:
At London Dental Specialists, we assess each patient individually to determine the most appropriate treatment option based on their specific circumstances.

During a sinus lift procedure at London Dental Specialists, you can expect:
The procedure typically takes 60-90 minutes per side, and you'll be able to go home the same day.
With proper care and regular dental check-ups at London Dental Specialists, the results of a sinus lift can last a lifetime. The grafted bone becomes a permanent part of your jaw structure. To ensure longevity, we recommend:
The dental implants placed after your sinus lift can also last a lifetime with proper maintenance and care.
