Sinus Lifts - Florida Institute for Periodontics & Dental Implants

Sinus Lifts Enable Upper Premolar and Molar Replacement

A sinus lift is a procedure that elevates the floor of the maxillary sinus cavity and augments surrounding bone, as a measure of preparing for implant placement in the upper premolar and molar regions of the mouth. Our periodontal specialists are ready to help you build the smile of your dreams by stabilizing your jawbone health for implant success.

Give Your Implants a Healthy, Solid Start

Dental implants require a certain quantity and quality of bone for support. Bone loss due to gum disease or prolonged tooth loss may render upper areas of the mouth unfit for implants, unless bone in these areas is fortified and stabilized. A sinus lift may be recommended if you have experienced one or more of the following:

• Tooth loss in the upper back jaw
• Bone loss in the upper back jaw
• Insufficient bone height for implants
• Thin sinus cavity floor or wall
• Sinus cavity positioned too close to the jawbone

I live in Venice, FL and drive three hours for Doctor Gutierrez to take care of my teeth. I had an implant in April 2026 and when he finished his work, I went back home feeling very well doing all my routines like nothing happened. He has blessed hands.
