Maxillary Sinus Surgery

Maxillary sinus lift surgery is a procedure used in implant surgery. This operation is performed to increase the bone volume in the posterior region of the upper jaw where implants will be placed. There are different techniques and areas of application. Here is detailed information about maxillary sinus lift surgery:

1. What is Maxillary Sinus Lift Surgery?

Maxillary sinus lift surgery is a surgical procedure performed to increase the bone volume in the posterior region of the upper jaw where implants will be placed. During this procedure, bone grafts are placed under the sinus cavity, thus providing sufficient bone volume for the implants.

2. How many types are there?

There are generally two main types of maxillary sinus lifting operations:

External approach: In this method, bone grafts are placed through a surgical procedure performed from an externally accessible area of ​​the sinus cavity.
Internal approach (vertical sinus lift): In this method, bone grafts are placed by opening a window from below the implant bed into the sinus cavity.
Both methods can be used as preparation for implant surgery, but may differ depending on the surgeon’s preference and the patient’s condition.

3. What is it for?

Maxillary sinus lift surgery is performed to lift the sinus floor before implant placement and increase the bone volume where the implant will be placed. This surgery is necessary when the upper back teeth are missing, the jaw bone height is insufficient, or the natural bone volume is insufficient.
