Sinus lifting involves a bone addition operation in the jaw, in the area of molars and premolars. The specialist in dental surgery will move the membrane of the sinus to make room for the new bone between the maxilla and the maxillary sinuses, on both sides of the nose. In the case of a dental implant, a sufficient amount of bone is required for insertion and therefore the sinus lift procedure aims at restoring the bone volume in the sinus area, because the implant cannot be fixed directly in this case in the sinus.
