Sinus Lifting & Bone Graft - Your Smile Turkey Dental Clinic
 

Sinus Lifting and
Bone Graft

Sinus lifting and bone graft is a sophisticated dental procedure that can help restore lost bone tissue in the jaw and create a stable foundation for dental implants. This treatment is safe, effective, and minimally invasive, with most patients experiencing little to no discomfort during and after the procedure. Sinus lifting and bone graft can provide a reliable solution for patients who have suffered bone loss due to trauma, gum disease, or other dental issues, allowing them to enjoy a healthy and confident smile.

What Exactly is
Sinus Lifting?

Sinus lifting, also known as maxillary sinus floor augmentation, is a surgical procedure used to increase the height of the bone in the upper jaw, specifically the area above the premolars and molars. This procedure is commonly used in cases where there is insufficient bone height to support dental implants. During the procedure, the sinus membrane is gently lifted, and a bone graft is inserted into the space between the jaw and the sinus cavity. The bone graft material is typically taken from the patient’s own body, such as the hip or tibia, or from a donor source. Sinus lifting requires a skilled surgeon and careful planning to achieve the desired outcome, but it can be an effective solution for patients seeking to restore their smile and improve their oral health.

A sinus lift is done when there is not enough bone in the upper jaw or the sinuses are too close to the jaw for dental implants to be placed.

What is Bone Grafting?

Bone grafting is a surgical procedure that involves the transplantation of bone tissue to repair or rebuild bones that have been damaged due to injury, disease, or other conditions. The procedure is commonly used to treat fractures, bone infections, and bone loss due to dental issues. During bone grafting, the surgeon will typically take bone tissue from another part of the patient’s body, such as the hip or tibia, or use a donor source. The bone tissue is then transplanted to the damaged area, where it will gradually integrate and form new bone tissue. This procedure is often used in conjunction with other treatments, such as dental implants or orthopedic surgery. Bone grafting is a complex and delicate procedure that requires careful planning and execution, but it can be a highly effective solution for patients seeking to restore their bone structure and function.

A dental bone graft is a minor surgical procedure used to recreate bone in areas of the mouth where it has been lost due to periodontitis, traumatic extractions, infection, long-term denture wear, and other causes. In many cases, bone loss results from tooth loss. Once a tooth is lost, the bone that supports it, called alveolar bone, will disappear or resorb.

Grafting replaces lost bone and is possible because bone tissue has the ability to regenerate if given a proper environment to grow in.

Why Would I Need Sinus Lifting/Bone Grafting? 

For patients to experience a successful dental implant procedure, the quantity and quality of the jawbone where the implant will be placed must meet certain standards before the surgery can take place. Prospective patients who require some pre-surgeries before they will be considered eligible to receive dental implants The upper jawbone is often one of those areas requiring attention, as it is one of the most difficult places to place dental implants successfully.

The most common reason that a patient may need a bone graft or sinus lift is due to the deterioration of their natural jaw and gum tissue after tooth loss. Once a natural tooth is lost, the underlying tissue is no longer protected or stimulated and will begin to recede and weaken. This process usually begins about six months after a tooth is lost.

If you have been wearing a full or partial denture or a dental bridge to restore a missing tooth, or if you have been missing a tooth without restorative treatment, you may need a bone graft or sinus lift before implant surgery.

How long is recovery from sinus lift and bone graft?

The recovery period from a sinus lift and bone graft can vary depending on the individual case and the extent of the procedure. Generally, patients can expect to experience some swelling, discomfort, and minor bleeding immediately after the surgery. Pain medication and antibiotics may be prescribed to manage these symptoms.

It is important for patients to rest and avoid strenuous activity for at least the first week after surgery. Patients should also follow a soft food diet and avoid smoking or using straws, which can interfere with the healing process. It may take several months for the bone graft to fully integrate with the existing bone, and during this time, patients will need to take extra care to protect the surgical site. Regular check-ups with the surgeon will be necessary to monitor the healing progress. Overall, patients should expect a recovery period of several months before the full benefits of the sinus lift and bone graft are realized.

    How painful is
    Bone Graft?

    While everyone’s pain tolerance is different, patients can generally expect some level of discomfort and pain after a sinus bone graft procedure. The amount of pain experienced can depend on the extent of the surgery, the type of bone graft material used, and individual factors such as age and overall health. Most patients will experience some level of swelling, discomfort, and minor bleeding immediately after the surgery, but this can be managed with pain medication prescribed by the surgeon. Additionally, patients may need to follow a soft food diet for a few days after the procedure to allow for proper healing. It’s important to note that the discomfort and pain will gradually subside over time as the surgical site heals. Patients should follow the post-operative care instructions provided by their surgeon to minimize pain and complications and promote a successful recovery.

    Does a sinus lift change facial appearance?

    While a sinus lift is a surgical procedure that can alter the structure of the upper jawbone, it typically does not result in a significant change in facial appearance. The procedure involves lifting the sinus membrane and inserting bone graft material into the space between the jaw and the sinus cavity, which can increase the height of the bone in the upper jaw and provide support for dental implants or other restorative treatments. However, since the procedure is performed internally and does not involve external incisions or changes to the soft tissue of the face, it is unlikely to cause noticeable changes in facial appearance. Patients can generally expect to retain their natural facial contours and features after a sinus lift procedure. As with any surgical procedure, it’s important for patients to discuss any potential risks or side effects with their surgeon beforehand and to follow all post-operative care instructions to minimize complications and promote optimal healing.

    How much does a bone graft and sinus lift Cost?

    The cost of a bone graft and sinus lift procedure can vary depending on several factors, including the experience and skill level of the surgeon, the extent of the procedure, and the type of bone graft material used. In general, the cost of a bone graft and sinus lift procedure can range from £1,000 to £3,000 or more per site. Additionally, patients should also factor in the cost of any additional treatments, such as dental implants, that may be necessary after the bone graft and sinus lift procedure. It’s important for patients to discuss the expected cost of the procedure with their surgeon beforehand and to check with their insurance provider to see if the procedure is covered under their plan. Some insurance plans may cover a portion of the cost, while others may not cover the procedure at all

    Can sinus lift and bone graft be done at the same time?

    Yes, a sinus lift and bone graft can often be done at the same time, and this is a common approach used by many dental surgeons. The procedure involves gently lifting the sinus membrane and placing bone graft material into the space between the jaw and the sinus cavity. The bone graft material is typically sourced from the patient’s own body or a donor source. The goal of this procedure is to increase the height of the bone in the upper jaw and provide support for dental implants or other restorative treatments. Combining the sinus lift and bone graft procedures can reduce the overall number of surgeries needed and minimize the recovery time for the patient. However, not all patients may be suitable candidates for this approach, and the decision to combine the procedures should be made on a case-by-case basis after a thorough evaluation by the dental surgeon.
