Sinus lifting

If you have not enough bone to place an implant, we can make the sinus lift operation to renew a bone stock and place an implant

This procedure is carried out successfully already more than twenty years and is now successfully an accepted and predictable way to build bone.

The principle of a direct sinuslift is shown schematically in the images above. After folding of the gums (left) a flap in the jawbone is drilled, whereupon the mucous membrane that is in the jaw cavity can be slided and pushed away (right), the resulting space can be filled with bone and / or a bone substitute, allowing the jaw cavity to become smaller so that eventually an implant with sufficient length can be placed.

Indirect sinuslift

If more bone is present then the bottom of the jaw cavity can also be tapped up by using a kind of needle, osteomas. This is done by the borehole, which later will be placed in the implant. The technique for the extra hole in the jaw bone volume cavity to create, is performed through the bone to break it up and hitting the bottom with the osteoom. Depending on the situation is also a bone or bone substitute material through the holes worked up. This technique can only be used if bone a few millimeters too low.

The fill material used for the sinus lift can be autologous bone, but in some cases sufficient to donorbot for filling out the mouth without a place to use (eg hip) is also mixed with autologous bone eg artificial bone. Some indications are also artificial bone used alone, or in combination with growth factors extracted from blood. 

Depending on the amount available under the jaw bone cavity simultaneously with the sinus lift an implant placed. If there was little bone present, as in the example of direct sinus lift, then the implant after the above periods can be placed.
