Sinus Lift Curette

Sinus Lift Curette

Details:

Patients who have the following may be good candidates for sinus augmentation.

• Lost more than one tooth in the posterior maxilla.
• Lost a significant amount of bone in the posterior maxilla.
• Missing teeth due to genetics or birth defect.
• Minus most of the maxillary teeth and need a strong sinus floor for multiple implants.

It is not known if using sinus lift techniques is more successful than using short implants for reducing the number of artificial teeth or dental implant failures up to a year after teeth/implant placement
