What is Sinus Lifting?
Sinus lifting is a bone augmentation procedure applied to patients with insufficient bone volume in the posterior upper jaw (molar region). In this method, the sinus floor is lifted upward, and bone graft is placed into the created space to form a suitable bone volume for implant placement.
As Dentasay Oral and Dental Health Clinic, we perform sinus lifting procedures safely and comfortably using advanced surgical techniques and digital planning.
Why is Sinus Lifting Performed?
Sinus lifting may be necessary in the following cases:
- If there is insufficient bone for implant in the upper jaw
- If bone resorption has occurred due to long-term tooth loss
- If the sinus cavity is enlarged
- If bone support is needed for secure implant placement
This procedure is a critical step to increase the success of implant treatment.
Am I a Suitable Candidate for Sinus Lifting?
Suitable candidates for sinus lifting are generally:
- Patients with insufficient bone in the posterior upper jaw
- Individuals who want implants but lack bone support
- Individuals with good general health
- Patients who maintain good oral hygiene
At Dentasay, your bone structure is evaluated through a detailed examination and 3D tomography, and the most suitable treatment plan is created for you.
What Are the Types of Sinus Lifting?
Sinus lifting can be performed in two different ways:
- Open Sinus Lifting: Applied in cases of more advanced bone loss
- Closed Sinus Lifting: Preferred in cases of milder bone deficiency
Which method will be applied is determined according to the patient’s bone structure.
Advantages of Sinus Lifting Procedure
- Creates the necessary bone volume for implant
- Increases the success of implant treatment
- Provides long-lasting and strong implants
- Compensates for bone loss
- Enables implant placement in the upper jaw
How Does the Sinus Lifting Treatment Process Proceed?
The treatment process generally consists of the following steps:
- Detailed examination and 3D tomography
- Analysis of sinus and bone structure
- Determination of the appropriate surgical method
- Elevation of the sinus membrane and placement of bone graft
- Healing process (usually 3-6 months)
- Transition to implant treatment
How Long Does Sinus Lifting Last?
The new bone created by sinus lifting fuses with the jawbone and becomes permanent. Thus, a solid and long-lasting foundation for implants is established.

Sinus lifting is applied to patients who have insufficient bone volume in the upper jaw posterior region and want to have implants. It is especially preferred in individuals who have had missing teeth for a long time.
How is sinus lifting performed?
In this procedure, the sinus membrane is carefully lifted upward and bone graft is placed into the created space. Thus, the necessary bone height for the implant is achieved. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia.
What is the difference between open and closed sinus lifting?
Open sinus lifting is applied to patients with advanced bone loss and is more comprehensive. Closed sinus lifting is preferred for milder bone deficiencies and can usually be performed simultaneously with implant placement.
What is the healing process like?
Mild swelling and sensitivity may occur after the procedure. This usually subsides within a few days. Bone formation and healing process typically takes 3-6 months.
What are the advantages of sinus lifting?
- Creates the necessary bone volume for implants
- Enables implant placement in the upper jaw
- Provides stronger and longer-lasting implants
- Compensates for bone loss
- Increases treatment success
What should be considered after sinus lifting?
In the first few days, activities that increase nasal pressure (such as forceful blowing) should be avoided. Oral hygiene should be maintained, and medications prescribed by the physician should be used regularly. Smoking can negatively affect healing.
How long does sinus lifting treatment take?
The procedure is usually completed in a short time. However, a healing period of 3-6 months is required for bone formation. After this period, implant treatment is initiated.
