Sinus Lift
A sinus lift can enhance your bone structure to ensure the success of dental implants.
Sinus Lifts in Marana, AZ
A sinus lift, also known as sinus augmentation, is a procedure that adds bone to the upper jaw near the molars and premolars to create a stable foundation for dental implants. When the upper jaw lacks sufficient bone density due to natural bone loss or the proximity of the sinus cavity, a sinus lift ensures there’s enough bone to securely anchor implants. This procedure is essential for patients who want to restore missing teeth in the upper jaw but don’t have the necessary bone support. At Bria Dental, we perform sinus lifts with precision and care, helping you achieve the solid foundation needed for a confident, lasting smile.

What is the purpose of a sinus lift in dental treatment?
A sinus lift adds bone to the upper jaw to create adequate support for dental implants, particularly in cases where the natural bone has deteriorated or the sinus cavity is too close to the jaw.
-
How long does it take to recover from a sinus lift?
Recovery from a sinus lift typically takes several months, allowing the added bone to integrate with the existing bone and form a stable base for implants. Our team will monitor your healing and provide guidance throughout the process.
-
Is a sinus lift required for all dental implants?
No, a sinus lift is only necessary for dental implants in the upper jaw when there isn’t enough natural bone density or the sinus cavity is too close to the implant site.
