During a sinus lift, Dr. Seth or Zack Larson will surgically increase the amount of bone you have in your upper jaw. This is meant to create space for a dental implant so it can successfully integrate with your jawbone.
The procedure is performed in two hours or less with a two to three-day healing period. If there is bone loss, this can increase the length of procedure time because the sinus will need to be moved up in order to make space for a bone graft.
