Introduction
For patients who need dental implants in the upper jaw but lack sufficient bone, Sinus Lift Surgery is a highly effective solution. This procedure adds bone volume to the upper jaw, ensuring stronger and long-lasting implants.
At Thirty2 Dental Clinic in Tirana, Albania, Dr. Denis Argjiri, a leading expert in advanced implantology and bone grafting, specializes in Sinus Lift Surgery, providing safe and precise procedures to help patients regain their smiles with strong, stable implants.
In this guide, we’ll cover what a sinus lift is, who needs it, and what to expect during the procedure—helping you make an informed decision about your dental implant treatment in Albania.
What is Sinus Lift Surgery?
A sinus lift, also called sinus augmentation, is a bone grafting procedure that increases bone height in the upper jaw to support dental implants.
How Does It Work?
🔹 The sinus membrane is gently lifted, creating space for bone graft material.
🔹 Bone is added to strengthen the jawbone for implant placement.
🔹 After healing, dental implants can be securely placed in the upper jaw.
At Thirty2 Dental Clinic, Dr. Denis Argjiri uses advanced techniques to ensure a minimally invasive, safe, and highly successful sinus lift procedure.
Who Needs a Sinus Lift for Dental Implants?
A sinus lift is recommended for patients who:
🦷 Have insufficient bone in the upper jaw – Prevents implant failure.
🦷 Lost teeth in the upper jaw – Bone shrinks over time after tooth loss.
🦷 Suffered from periodontal disease – Causes bone deterioration.
🦷 Have naturally large sinuses – Leaves little space for implants.
🦷 Want stable, long-lasting dental implants – Ensures proper support.
If you’re unsure whether you need a sinus lift, Dr. Denis Argjiri at Thirty2 Dental Clinic provides 3D CBCT imaging to evaluate your bone structure and implant suitability.
Types of Sinus Lift Surgery at Thirty2 Dental Clinic
At Thirty2 Dental Clinic, Dr. Denis Argjiri performs two types of sinus lifts, depending on the patient’s bone condition:
1. Indirect (Crestal) Sinus Lift – Minimally Invasive
✅ For patients with minor bone loss (4-6mm of bone remaining).
✅ A small opening is made at the implant site to gently lift the sinus.
✅ Bone grafting is performed simultaneously with implant placement.
✅ Faster healing and shorter recovery time.
2. Direct (Lateral Window) Sinus Lift – Extensive Bone Augmentation
✅ For patients with severe bone loss (less than 4mm of bone).
✅ A side opening is made in the upper jaw to lift the sinus membrane.
✅ Bone graft material is placed for new bone growth.
✅ Implant placement occurs after healing (4-6 months).
Both techniques ensure strong, long-lasting support for upper jaw implants.
