Sinus Augmentation: A Pathway to Dental Implants

Sinus augmentation is a procedure performed by periodontists to address insufficient bone density in the upper jaw. During this procedure, the sinus membrane is elevated, and bone graft material is added to stimulate bone growth. This allows for secure dental implant placement.

The procedure is typically performed under local anesthesia, and healing is generally straightforward. If you’re considering dental implants and have concerns about bone density, consult with a periodontist to discuss sinus augmentation.
