Extraction of #14, sinus lift with bone graft and implant placement. Cosmetic dentistry Los Angeles. Tel: Procedure The maxillary sinuses are behind your cheeks and on top of the upper teeth. When the sinus wall is thin, it is impossible to place dental implants in this bone. A sinus lift may be necessary to raise the sinus floor and add additional bone to the area for a future implant procedure. A small window is made into the side of the sinus. The sinus lining is carefully elevated and artificial bone grafting material is placed onto the sinus floor. Once the bone graft has matured, implants can be placed in the upper jaw.
