What is a sinus lift procedure?

A sinus lift, also known as sinus augmentation, sinus graft, or sinus floor elevation, is an oral surgery procedure that increases bone volume in the upper jaw near the molars and premolars. The maxillary sinus membrane is elevated to create space for the additional bone, enabling the placement of dental implants for Friday Hill residents.

Why is sinus augmentation needed for dental implants in Friday Hill?

Sinus floor augmentation is often necessary before placing dental implants in the upper jaw, of Friday Hill residents, due to:

  • Insufficient bone height
  • Bone resorption after tooth loss
  • Jaw bone atrophy
  • Maxillary sinus proximity

Sinus lift surgery increases bone volume and density, providing a stable foundation for implant placement.

What are the different sinus lift techniques?

At London Dental Specialists, our experienced periodontists and oral surgeons perform sinus lifts using various techniques, including:

  1. Lateral window technique
  2. Osteotome technique
  3. Transalveolar technique
  4. Piezosurgery
Technique Description
Lateral window Creating an opening in the side of the jaw to access the sinus cavity
Osteotome Accessing the sinus through the implant site using special instruments
Transalveolar Lifting the sinus membrane through the implant site using specialised drills
Piezosurgery Using ultrasonic vibrations for precise bone cutting and membrane lifting

What types of bone graft materials are used in sinus lift procedures in Friday Hill?

The space created beneath the lifted sinus membrane is filled with bone graft material, which can be:

  • Autograft (harvested from the patient’s own body)
  • Allograft (donated human bone)
  • Xenograft (derived from animal sources, e.g., Bio-Oss®)
  • Alloplast (synthetic bone substitutes, e.g., Straumann® BoneCeramic)

What are the steps involved in a sinus floor elevation procedure in Friday Hill?

For Friday Hill residents, the steps include:

  1. Consultation and treatment planning with CBCT scanning
  2. Surgical access to the maxillary sinus cavity
  3. Lifting the Schneiderian membrane (sinus membrane)
  4. Placing the bone graft material beneath the elevated membrane
  5. Closing the surgical incision with sutures
  6. Healing period (3-6 months) for bone graft integration
  7. Dental implant placement in the augmented bone

What is the recovery time after a sinus graft surgery?

Recovery after a sinus augmentation procedure varies but generally takes 3-6 months. Patients may experience some swelling, discomfort, and minor bleeding following the surgery. Our team at London Dental Specialists provides detailed post-operative care instructions and follow-up appointments to ensure a smooth recovery.

Are there any risks or complications associated with sinus floor elevation?

As with any surgical procedure, sinus lift surgery carries some risks, including:

  • Schneiderian membrane perforation
  • Postoperative infection
  • Excessive bleeding
  • Delayed healing or graft failure
  • Maxillary sinusitis

However, at London Dental Specialists, our skilled surgeons and state-of-the-art facilities minimise these risks, and complications are rare.

How much does a sinus lift cost in Friday Hill?

Residents of Friday Hill can expect a sinus lift to cost £2000 on average. However the cost varies depending on factors such as the extent of surgery required, the type of bone graft material used, and the number of implants needed. To get an accurate quote for your specific case, book a consultation with our specialist team at London Dental Specialists.

What is the success rate of dental implants placed after a sinus lift?
