A sinus lift, or sinus augmentation, is a procedure that increases the amount of bone in the upper jaw by lifting the sinus membrane and adding bone material. This is often necessary for patients looking to place dental implants in the upper back jaw. Why Choose Sinus Lift at Wonderful Smiles Dental We use advanced imaging technology to carefully plan and execute sinus lift procedures with precision, ensuring that you have the bone density needed for successful implants. Who Requires a Sinus Lift? Individuals who lack sufficient bone height in the upper jaw or those whose sinuses are too close to the jaw due to congenital conditions or bone loss after tooth extraction are ideal candidates for a sinus lift. By choosing board-certified surgeons like Monika Mahajan, DDS, patients in Puyallup can ensure that their procedure is performed with the highest level of expertise and care, maximizing the chances for successful dental implant integration.
