Step One
3D Imaging
Advanced imaging maps the sinus floor and the bone available beneath it so the lift can be planned precisely before anything else at all gets underway.
Explore a Path Forward With Dental Implants
Been told you don’t have enough bone for upper jaw implants? Don’t worry – there’s a solution! Think of a sinus lift as creating extra space in your upper jaw, like adding an extra floor to a building. At OC Perio & Implants Dental Group, Dr. Reshad uses advanced 3D imaging and gentle techniques to help patients achieve their dream smile, even when traditional implants might seem impossible.
Understanding Sinus Lifts
Your sinuses are like cozy neighbors living right above your upper back teeth. Sometimes, when you need dental implants in that area, we need to politely ask those neighbors to move upstairs a little to make room for your new teeth. Using special grafting materials that your body gradually transforms into natural bone, we create the height that an upper implant requires. Dr. Reshad uses advanced 3D imaging and gentle techniques throughout the procedure. Patients who were told implants were impossible often turn out to be candidates after all.
Signs You May Need a Sinus Lift
-
Upper Implants — You want dental implants in the upper back jaw but the bone height there is insufficient to support them and shows no real sign of settling down again.
-
Previous Refusal — Another practice told you that implants in that area were simply not possible in your particular case, and it has continued that way for some time now.
-
Long-Term Loss — Upper back teeth were lost years ago, and the bone beneath the sinus has resorbed steadily since then in a way that other people have started noticing.
-
Low Sinus — Imaging has shown that your sinus sits low enough to leave inadequate bone for an implant beneath in a way that other people have started noticing.
Your Journey With Us
Our Step-by-Step Process
Here is what you can expect during a sinus lift at OC Perio & Implants.
Schedule a Consultation Step Two
Treatment Planning
We explain what the procedure involves and how it connects to the implant that is planned to follow it and long into the years that follow afterward.
Step Three
Comfortable Anesthesia
The area is numbed thoroughly, and sedation options remain available for this longer surgical procedure and long into the years that follow afterward.
Step Four
Sinus Elevation
The sinus membrane is gently lifted, and grafting material is placed beneath it to create the needed height before anything else at all gets underway.
Step Five
Healing Period
The graft integrates across several months, and follow-up imaging confirms the new bone before implants follow before anything else at all gets underway.
The Benefits of a Sinus Lift
Implants Possible
Patients told that upper implants were impossible frequently turn out to be candidates once the sinus has been lifted properly for many years into the future beyond this point.
Adequate Height
Creating bone height below the sinus floor gives an upper implant the vertical support it needs to integrate and last across all of the years that follow treatment here.
Natural Growth
Special grafting materials are gradually transformed by your body into natural bone rather than staying foreign to it across all of the years that follow treatment here.
Precise Planning
Advanced imaging maps the sinus floor and the available bone so the procedure is planned rather than estimated across all of the years that follow treatment here.
Lasting Solution
Enjoy a permanent foundation for your replacement teeth.

FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions About Sinus Lifts
Check out these frequently asked questions, or contact us to speak with our team.
Why would I need a sinus lift?
Your sinuses sit right above your upper back teeth, and sometimes there is not enough bone height beneath them for an implant. The lift creates the space required.
I was told implants were impossible. Is that final?
Not necessarily, since patients told implants were impossible often turn out to be candidates after a sinus lift. A second opinion is genuinely worth having.
Does the graft become natural bone?
We use special grafting materials that your body gradually transforms into natural bone. Follow-up imaging confirms the result before implants are placed.
How much does a sinus lift in Mission Viejo, CA, cost?
The cost depends on the extent of the lift and the grafting materials required. Our team reviews the full plan and fees with you beforehand.
Does insurance cover a sinus lift in Mission Viejo, CA?
Coverage often depends on whether the procedure supports a medically necessary restoration. Our team will verify your benefits and explain what applies.
