The sinus area is the maxillary anatomical cavities located just above the upper jaw and near our molars. These cavities are among the important anatomical structures that help to balance the weight of the head and carry the weight more comfortably, as well as voice formation.
These sinus cavities in the region of the molars are critical for implant surgery. Implants are often anchored in the jawbone and the availability of sufficient bone is essential for the successful placement of the implants. However, over time, the amount of jawbone can decrease as a result of tooth loss or lack of tooth. In this case, it may be necessary to elevate the sinus floor prior to implant placement.
This surgical procedure, called sinus lifting, is performed to fill the space under the sinus area and increase the amount of bone. This ensures a more secure placement of the implants and helps to ensure successful implant treatments.
Sinus lifting is an effective method used to support the success of implant surgery. This procedure should be performed by a specialized surgeon and allows patients to have more confidence in the bone structure prior to implant treatment. As a result, sinus lifting is an important step that contributes to the creation of healthy and beautiful smiles.
