Sinus Perforation Repair Patient
Individual results may vary.
Case ID: 92055This patient did not have enough bone for implants after his hopeless teeth were removed.
This sequence shows a sinus lift and a common complication of a sinus lift and how it is resolved. Sinus lifts lift the membrane of the maxillary sinus in order to add bone so future dental implants will be full encased in bone! This procedure can take 7-10 months for adequate healing and turnover of bone to support dental implants! That is why it’s always better to place implants early and close to when teeth are pulled to avoid expansion of the maxillary sinus that occurs after tooth loss.
Again this is a sequence to show repair of sinus perforation during sinus lifts.
