Not enough bone for upper jaw implants? A sinus lift creates the foundation you need. Dr. Kevin Nail performs sinus augmentation procedures to prepare patients for successful, long-lasting dental implants.
What Is a Sinus Lift?
Creating the Foundation for Dental Implants
A sinus lift — also called sinus augmentation — is a surgical procedure that adds bone to the upper jaw between your molars and premolars. The sinus membrane is gently lifted upward to make room for the bone graft material.
Over several months, the grafted bone integrates with your natural bone, creating a strong, stable foundation for dental implants. Dr. Nail uses advanced 3D CT imaging to plan every sinus lift with precision.
Sedation dentistry is available to ensure your comfort throughout the procedure. Most patients are surprised by how manageable the recovery is.
