Have you been told about the need for sinus elevation surgery? Then you should definitely read this article.
There are two sinus cavities in the upper jaw, right and left. And following the extraction of teeth in this area, it is quite common for the sinus cavities to sag downwards due to the effect of gravity. The solution to this will be the addition of bone to the area. In the surgeries to be performed here, it will be essential that this procedure be performed by a dentist who is experienced in this field. Sinus augmentation surgery is a very sensitive procedure, and the reason for this sensitivity is that the membrane here is very thin. This membrane, which is as thin as a membrane, should never be torn during surgery. It is an indispensable condition for this to be done with Piezo surgery. The risk of perforation of the sinus membrane in sinus elevation surgeries performed with the Piezo device is almost zero because this device lifts the bone with ultrasonic waves due to its own mechanics, and it is almost impossible to rupture the membrane, which is as thin as a membrane. When you learn that this surgery will be performed with your doctor, the first question you should ask is which device will perform this surgery. The brand and source of the bone powder (graft) that will be replaced with the missing bone tissue after the sinus membrane is removed is also of great importance. It is very important to open the bone powder you will use at that time and then give you the stickers of the package used. Because these materials, whose packaging and sterilization are taken into consideration, are not suitable for reuse after being opened. They lose their sterilization properties afterwards. It should be decided whether the implants to be placed in the area will be performed simultaneously with the sinus augmentation (bone powder addition) surgery or not, taking into account the height of the existing bone. This is, of course, a decision you should make together with your doctor. In some cases, bone augmentation surgery is required in the first session, while implants must be performed in the next procedure. In some cases, these two procedures can be performed at the same time.
Hoping your beautiful smile will last a lifetime.
