Maxillary sinus augmentation is a method to assist dental implantation, which is often used in dental implant surgery. Therefore, more and more people are curious about this technology. Why raise the maxillary sinus?

What is maxillary sinus elevation and what is maxillary sinus elevation?

The maxillary sinus is located below the orbit and outside the nose. When the maxillary molars and bicuspid teeth in the teeth are missing, the maxillary sinus will expand and move downward, When planting in this position, there is not enough space for the implant, At this time, the maxillary sinus needs to be improved.

So why do dental implants need to improve the maxillary sinus?

As we all know, the alveolar bone mass in the implant is one of the reasons for the success of the implant. Therefore, when the alveolar bone at the implant location is insufficient, it is necessary to improve the maxillary sinus, and ensure sufficient bone mass before implantation.

So does everyone need to improve the maxillary sinus when they implant? Why else?

Maxillary sinus lifting is also divided into maxillary sinus internal lifting and maxillary sinus external lifting.

It is mainly used for customers with alveolar bone atrophy and residual bone mass less than 5-8mm, especially those with multiple maxillary teeth missing.

It is mainly used for customers whose residual alveolar bone is less than 10 mm and larger than 5 mm, especially those with missing teeth.

Therefore, it can be said that whether it is necessary to measure and photograph the maxillary sinus elevation after the judgment of the CBCT doctor.

Do you know why to do maxillary sinus lift? Whether the maxillary sinus lifting operation must be used or not needs to be judged by an experienced doctor Moreover, maxillary sinus lifting is also a project with high technical requirements for doctors, so selecting reliable hospitals and doctors is the prerequisite for successful dental implant.
