What is Sinus Lifting?
Maxillary sinuses are hollow, air-filled areas located above the back teeth in the upper jaw and in the inner region of the cheek. If the teeth in the posterior region of the upper jaw are lost for various reasons, a number of losses in bone volume may occur as a result of downward sagging in the sinus cavities. This situation causes problems due to insufficient bone tissue when implant treatment is performed.
For a long-lasting and successful implant treatment, new bone formation can be achieved by increasing the bone tissue in the region with sinus elevation in these areas where bone tissue is insufficient. It is the most commonly used bone enhancement procedure for patients with bone loss in the posterior region of the upper jaw.
