Sinus Lift Surgery
Sinus lift procedures are just one of our specialties at Orlando Lifestyle Dentistry. Reserve your appointment with us today.
One of the consequences of losing teeth and not replacing them with dental implants is bone density loss. The jawbone needs stimulation from a tooth root to generate bone growth and prevent loss. Losing one or more of your upper teeth could result in collapsed sinuses, which makes it harder to get implants.
Thankfully, Orlando Lifestyle Dentistry provides sinus lift surgery in Orlando, FL, to help patients without sufficient bone density for dental implants. Experienced implant dentist Dr. Michael Gagoudakis leads our dental professionals. With his outstanding surgical and oral dental prosthetic experience and education, he can resolve issues surrounding tooth loss in multiple ways, including sinus lift surgery.

What to Know About Sinus Lifts for Dental Implants
Your sinuses are the air-filled cavities above your upper teeth and behind your cheekbones. The air inside your sinuses helps reduce your skull's weight. However, your sinuses can weaken and collapse if you lose your upper teeth.
Dental implants require strong bone density for the titanium rod to fuse to the bone and gum tissue. The procedure isn't possible for collapsed sinuses. However, a sinus lift using bone graft material on the upper jaw can increase how much bone is present between your jaw and sinuses to support dental implants.
What Are Common Sinus Lift Benefits?
You'll experience several benefits when you get a sinus lift in Orlando from our experts at Orlando Lifestyle Dentistry. With a sinus lift, implants, and professional dental care, you can have the following:
- A full set of natural-looking teeth
- Ample bone support for your dental implants
- A restored smile
- Improvements in your speech and bite
Will the Sinus Lift Hurt?
When Dr. Mike performs a sinus lift, he'll administer local anesthesia to keep patients comfortable and pain-free during the entire procedure. At most, there might be some pressure, but it won't be painful.
Post-surgery, it's likely to have some swelling and soreness that'll last for a few days. Our Orlando Lifestyle Dentistry team will provide you with information about how to prepare for the procedure and what to expect during your recovery.

Why You Might Need a Sinus Lift
Your upper jawbone height might not support dental implants for multiple reasons, such as:
- Tooth Loss: If you lose one or more teeth in your upper jaw, you'll eventually have bone resorption and lose bone density around the affected area.
- Oral Pathology: Health conditions like tumors and cysts can negatively impact your jawbone.
- Periodontal Disease: Untreated gum disease can cause bone loss.
- Facial Structure: Sometimes sinuses are too close to support dental implants.
Possible Side Effects and Complications of the Procedure
Though sinus lift surgeries are generally safe, Orlando Lifestyle Dentistry takes every precaution possible to avoid complications. The biggest risk of the procedure is a torn or pierced sinus membrane. Other complications or temporary side effects include infection, inflammation, pain, and graft failure, which is rare.
Another possible side effect of sinus lifts is maxillary sinusitis, which causes inflammation of the maxillary sinuses. It can cause bilateral or unilateral facial pain and nasal congestion.
Dr. Mike has almost 20 years of experience with implant dentistry and oral surgery. His expertise helps him provide the best care and quickly resolve possible complications.
