Build the Foundation for Implants: Sinus Lifting in Turkey

Sinus lifting, also known as sinus augmentation, is a specialized surgical procedure designed to increase bone height in the upper jaw (maxilla) to prepare for dental implants. This technique creates the necessary space and bone volume by gently elevating the sinus membrane and placing bone graft material. With skilled oral surgeons and advanced techniques, Turkey is a trusted destination for successful, safe, and cost-effective sinus lifting procedures.

Why Choose Sinus Lifting?

  • Enable Dental Implants: Create a stable foundation for implant placement in the upper jaw.
  • Improve Bone Volume: Increase bone density where natural bone is insufficient due to resorption.
  • Long-Term Durability: Ensure long-lasting implant success and stability.
  • Minimal Discomfort: Modern techniques minimize trauma and promote faster healing.
  • Prevent Sinus Complications: Professionally performed to avoid sinus membrane damage and future issues.

The Sinus Lifting Process: Step by Step

  • Consultation & Imaging: Detailed 3D scans (CBCT) to assess sinus anatomy and bone quality.
  • Anesthesia: Local anesthesia or sedation for a comfortable, pain-free procedure.
  • Sinus Membrane Elevation: A small opening is made to gently lift the sinus membrane.
  • Bone Grafting: Placement of biocompatible graft material to stimulate new bone growth.
  • Closure: Surgical site closed with sutures; healing begins to prepare for future implant placement.
  • Follow-Up: Regular monitoring to ensure successful bone integration.

Recovery: What to Expect

  • Mild swelling or nasal congestion for a few days post-surgery.
  • Soft diet and careful oral hygiene recommended during healing.
  • Avoidance of activities like blowing the nose or heavy lifting for 1-2 weeks.
  • New bone formation typically takes 4-9 months before implants can be placed.

Why Turkey? The Ideal Choice for Sinus Lifting

  • Expert Oral Surgeons: Specialized in sinus lift and bone grafting techniques.
  • Advanced Imaging Technology: Precise 3D planning with CBCT scans.
  • Affordable Excellence: High-quality care at significantly lower costs than in Western countries.
  • Comprehensive Care Packages: Travel, accommodation, and treatment coordination for international patients.
  • Safety & Sterility: International standards for surgical hygiene and patient safety.

Understanding the Risks

  • Temporary swelling, discomfort, or bruising
  • Minor bleeding or nasal congestion
  • Rare risk of sinus membrane perforation (correctable during surgery)
  • Infection risk if aftercare is not followed
  • Possibility of insufficient bone integration in some cases (may require additional grafting)

Exploring Alternatives

  • Zygomatic Implants: Implants anchored in the cheekbone for severe bone loss cases.
  • Short Implants: Specially designed implants requiring less bone height.
  • Bone Grafting Without Sinus Lift: When bone resorption is less severe.
