These are the anatomical spaces located near our maxillary and molars, located just above the upper jaw in the sinus region. These spaces near our molars are important because their function is to ensure the formation of sound and the reduction of head weight. As a result of the sinus cavities sagging downward, some losses in bone volume occur. Although these losses are seen as a natural process, they pose a problem when it comes to implant treatment.
Sinus grafting is used to apply implant treatment to toothless areas as a result of filling the sagging sinus cavities. This process ensures that sufficient volume is created for the length and width of the implant, which must be fully embedded in the bone. During sinus lifting, local anesthesia and general anesthesia are applied.
The air spaces in the skull, which have functions such as reducing the weight of the head and ensuring that sounds come out smoothly, are called sinuses. Since some of the sinuses are located in the areas near our teeth, they are also important in this respect. When teeth are lost in the upper jaw (maxilla) rear jaw region and dentures are not made in time to replace them, the distance between the sinus wall and the highest point of the jaw bone, called the crest, shortens.
Since there is not enough bone to implant in this area, sinus lifting is performed to increase the decreasing bone rate.
Sinus lifting operation; It is a surgical intervention usually performed under local anesthesia in a standard dentist's chair.
The sinus area is lifted at the desired level and made accessible through a small window opened from inside the mouth. After the desired increase in the sinus membrane covering the inside of the sinus is achieved, bone powder and grafting are applied to the created gap, and the area is closed by stitching.
After the sinus lifting operation, care should be taken to eat with the other side for 24 hours to protect the wound area. You should not eat or drink anything for two hours after the procedure. After sinus removal, no pressure should be applied while cleaning the nose and the mouth should be kept open when sneezing.

Many examinations must be performed before sinus surgery or sinus lifting surgery. During these examinations, it is decided whether this surgery is suitable for the person. After this decision stage, if your sinus structure is suitable for this surgery, there is nothing to fear. You can have this surgery done by trusting your doctor. Get well soon.
Sinus lifting is a surgical procedure performed to increase the amount of bone in the upper jaw, particularly in the area of the molars and premolars. This procedure is necessary when there is insufficient bone height in the upper jaw or when the sinuses are too close to the jaw for dental implants to be placed.
Sinus lifting is typically recommended for individuals who have experienced bone loss in the upper jaw due to tooth loss or periodontal disease. Candidates should have good overall health and be non-smokers, as smoking can impair healing.
The procedure is usually done under local anesthesia. The surgeon makes an incision in the gum tissue to expose the bone underneath. They then cut a small circular shape in the bone and gently push it upward into the sinus cavity. This creates a space where bone graft material can be placed to promote new bone growth. After placing the bone graft, the incision is closed with stitches.
Most patients report mild discomfort and swelling after the procedure, which can be managed with pain medication prescribed by the dentist or oral surgeon. The discomfort typically subsides within a few days to a week.
The initial healing period usually takes several weeks. During this time, it's important to follow post-operative care instructions provided by your dentist or oral surgeon. This may include taking antibiotics to prevent infection, avoiding strenuous activities, and attending follow-up appointments to monitor healing progress.
It typically takes about 4 to 9 months for the bone graft to heal and integrate with the existing bone. Once your dentist confirms that the bone has healed adequately, dental implants can be placed in the newly augmented bone.
