Sometimes called sinus augmentation, a sinus lift treatment involves adding bone to the space between your sinuses and upper jawbone to enable implants to be fitted successfully.
Get started today
A sinus lift is a surgical procedure, performed with extreme care by our highly trained dentists. We carry out a full consultation to ensure you are suitable for treatment, and discuss the other options available if applicable.
During the procedure, the maxillary sinus membrane is moved upwards, and a bone graft or artificial alternative added for the implant to bond with once it has been placed. The bone used is often taken from another area of the mouth, which can be quite invasive. We use various pain control methods to make you as comfortable as possible during treatment.

We employ the highest degree of care and regard for safety during treatment, but there are some potential risks. In the unlikely event that the sinus membrane is punctured during the procedure, treatment may require additional work to be completed or be stopped altogether. Also, infection of the gums and sinuses is a possibility, but this is very uncommon. Following treatment, we monitor you closely and give personalised tips and advice.
