Build a Stable Foundation for Dental Implants

Do you need more bone density in your upper jaw for dental implants? A sinus lift procedure can help. At our Shelby Township office, Drs. Ban R. Barbat and Abdul-Sattar Shakfa specialize in sinus augmentation to prepare your jaw for implant placement.

What Is a Sinus Lift?

A sinus lift adds bone tissue to the upper jaw near the molars and premolars by gently lifting the sinus membrane and placing grafting material underneath. This is often required for patients who have experienced bone loss due to tooth loss, gum disease, or other factors.

The Sinus Lift Process

  1. Consultation and Imaging: Using advanced CBCT scans, we assess the shape, size, and position of your sinuses to ensure a precise and safe procedure.
  2. Surgical Procedure: After numbing the area, we make a small incision in the gum to access the jawbone. The bone graft material is placed after the sinus membrane is carefully lifted.
  3. Healing Period: Over the next 4–9 months, your body integrates the graft material, creating a stable foundation for implants.

Why Choose Us?

Our team prioritizes safety, comfort, and long-term success. We also offer sedation options to make the procedure stress-free.
