Sinus Lift
Before an implant can be placed, some patients will require surgical preparation in the upper jaw to ensure there is enough bone tissue into which the implant can be secured.
When the upper jaw has had no teeth for some time, the bone and surrounding tissues begin to disappear. If this occurs, there may not be sufficient levels of dense bone to place an implant. Fortunately, science has advanced a great deal in this area and one solution is to perform a sinus lift.
A sinus lift is an oral surgical procedure that extends into the sinus cavity above the jaw and packs bone graft material into this space. This graft material will be incorporated by the surrounding bone and form a solid structure very similar to bone. After a waiting period, the site will be checked and once an adequate bone density level is achieved your implant will be ready to be placed.

Happy Customers
Very friendly and experienced staff. I felt very comfortable and safe at the appointment, as they had lots of measures in place to protect from the spread of covid.
It’s nice to use an independent business as I feel they care more. Eyesmile members of staff always explain what they are doing and why they are doing it to make you feel at ease and feel safe.
From the initial consultation and throughout my treatment they were friendly, relaxed and informative, any concerns were dealt with in a highly professional manner which completely put me at ease, I would wholeheartedly recommend this dental practice to anyone.
