A sinus lift, also known as sinus augmentation, is a surgical procedure used to add bone to the upper jaw in the area of the molars and premolars. When teeth have been missing for a long time, the bone in this region may shrink and the sinus cavity may expand, leaving insufficient bone for dental implants. During a sinus lift, the sinus membrane is gently raised and bone graft material is placed beneath it. Over time, the new bone integrates with the natural jawbone, creating a stable foundation for dental implants.
