What is sinus lift surgery?

- It is also sometimes called as sinus augmentation
- A sinus lift procedure is a surgery that increase bone height to the upper jaw in the area of molars and premolars.
.
- Bone graft is added between the jaw and the maxillary sinuses, which are on each side of the nose
.
- To give space for the bone, the sinus membrane is moved upward, or "lifted." A sinus lift is done by an oral and maxillofacial surgeon.

Reasons for inadequate bone in upper molar area
|
.

|
»
|
The maxillary sinus keeps expanding with age and soon patients have little bone left above the 2nd premolar, 1st molar and 2nd molar.

»
|
Bone loss due to gum disease.
Long term missing teeth in upper back region.

Bone graft failure has been common because of sinus lift complications.
|
|
Risk of tear of sinus membrane:
· The sinus membrane may be punctured or torn.
· The surgeon will either stitch the sinus tear or place a patch over it. If the repair is not successful, your surgeon may stop the procedure and give the tear time to heal.
· The sinus lift is repeated once the membrane has healed. This usually takes a few months.
|
|
· Infection of the bone graft may lead to failure.
|
|
· On rarely the existing bone does not integrate with the bone graft material, and the grafted area does not have a blood supply.
|
|
|
Disadvantages of sinus lift
|
· The sinus lift procedures which delay and complicate the patient’s desire to get immediate fixed teeth.
·
· The sinus lift procedures are being replaced by pterygoid implants and basal implants.

Shambhalabest dental clinics in hyderabad for best laser treatment in hyderabad
ReplyDeleteThe word laser is an acronym for “light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation”, which means that the intense and narrow beam of light is of one wavelength. Lasers revolutionized many surgical procedures, minimizing bleeding, swelling, scarring and pain. The potential benefits of laser use in dentistry include procedures done on soft tissue of the mouth with patrons reporting less postoperative pain. Laser surgery seals off nerve endings, so recovery is less painful, because the laser also seals off blood vessels which would bring clotting and other factors to help heal the tissues
