A sinus lift surgery may be required if your sinuses press against the upper row of your teeth or your teeth hang too low. When you need or want to get implants to replace your missing teeth, you need a proper base on which to fit them. You may need additional bone grafted to improve the depth of the base for tooth implants as well. A sinus lift procedure can solve many of the implant issues you may be facing or will face. Talk to your family dentist about sinus lift problems; the benefits of a sinus lift far outweigh the risks, which are negligible.

Sinus lift
Dental implants have quickly become a new standard in tooth replacement care. While most implant replacements need little prep work, those who want to replace molars along the sides of the upper jaw sometimes need some foundational improvements. Additional bone may be required to make an ideal implant attachment.
Sinus lift surgery lifts your sinus membrane and inserts bone graft material to enhance insufficient bone in your upper jaw. The sinuses located under your eyes and above your teeth represent the largest sinuses. The addition of bone graft material between your jaw bone and these maxillary sinuses is also called sinus augmentation.
