Overview

What Is a Sinus Lift?

A sinus lift adds bone to the upper jaw in the area beneath the sinus, where the bone is often too thin to hold an implant. The sinus membrane is gently lifted and the space beneath it filled with grafting material, which becomes solid bone over the following months. It is one of the most common ways to make implants possible in the back of the upper jaw.

A sinus lift may be recommended when there is not enough bone height in the upper back jaw for an implant. The procedure rebuilds the foundation needed for implant treatment. Whether it is appropriate, and the extent of grafting needed, is determined after your consultation and CBCT scan.

Benefits

Why a Sinus Lift Matters

The step that turns "you don't have enough bone" into a solid foundation for implants.
01

Makes implants possible

A sinus lift rebuilds the bone the upper back jaw has lost, so implants can be placed where they otherwise could not.
02

Planned for Your Implant Case

The procedure is planned from your CBCT scan and coordinated as part of the overall implant treatment sequence.
03

Planned in 3D

A cone-beam scan maps the sinus and bone precisely before treatment, so the graft is placed exactly where it is needed.
04

A lasting foundation

Once healed, the grafted bone becomes a permanent base, giving your implants the same stable footing as natural bone.
Process

How a Sinus Lift Is Done

1

Consultation and 3D Scan

We take a cone-beam scan and review it with you chair-side, measuring the bone beneath the sinus. This confirms whether a sinus lift is needed and how much bone must be built.
2

Treatment Planning

The graft and any implants are planned together in three dimensions. You leave knowing whether the implant goes in at the same time or after healing, and what it costs.
3

The Sinus Lift

The sinus membrane is gently lifted and grafting material placed beneath it. Depending on your needs, health history, and procedure, sedation options may include Oral Sedation, IV Sedation, or General Anesthesia. In some cases, the implant can be placed during the same visit.
4

Healing

Over the following months the graft turns into solid bone. This is what gives the future implant a stable foundation, and it is worth the wait.
5

Implant Placement

Once the new bone has matured, the implant is placed into it, with implant placement planned after healing when appropriate.
COST

What a Sinus Lift Adds

A sinus lift is rarely something you budget for on its own. It is the groundwork that makes an implant possible in the upper jaw.

QUOTED WITH YOUR IMPLANT PLAN

The lift is priced alongside the implant treatment it supports, not as a separate bill. Your figure comes from your CBCT scan, since how much bone you need decides the work involved.

Why Choose Restore for Sinus Lifts

Many practices place implants but send sinus lifts out to a specialist, which means a new office, a new fee, and a treatment plan split in two. Restore does the sinus lift, the implant, and the final tooth in one place, with one team who planned the whole thing from your first scan. Bone loss in the upper jaw rarely means being turned away here.

Sinus lift treatment is coordinated around the implant plan, with the sequence reviewed before care begins.
