Sinus lift to ensure implant stability
This video explains how a sinus lift procedure enables the placement of dental implants in cases where there is insufficient bone in the upper jaw. It showcases how the sinus floor is elevated to create space for implants, ensuring long-term stability and success.
The Process:
Accessing the Sinus: A small hole is drilled in the lateral wall of the maxillary sinus.
Lifting the Sinus Floor: The sinus membrane is gently elevated, and the space is filled with bone material of bovine or porcine origin to promote new bone growth.
Sealing and Healing: A membrane seals the area, allowing for proper healing over 4-5 months.
Implant Placement: Once healed, implants are securely placed, followed by final prosthodontic restoration after integration.
