Sinus Lift Surgery

in Solihull

What is a Sinus Lift?

Sinus lifts are a surgical procedure in which a periodontist or trained dentist adds bone to your upper jaw. This procedure is used in order to make space for dental implants. There are maxillary sinuses which exist inside both sides of the nose. Extra bone is added between the maxillary sinuses and your jaw. This is also known as a sinus augmentation.

From the moment i entered, i was met by the lovely receptionist and staff. Everyone was really friendly and helpful. They addressed all the questions and concerns i had and were able to give me recommendations. They were completely transparent and clear about what the treatment may entail. Definately the best dentist I have ever been too! Very excited for the plan they have made for me. 10/10 :)

What is Sinus Lift Surgery Used for?

It is used to make space for the dental implant when there is not enough space between the jaw and the sinus. This procedure is used in the following circumstances:

The space above the molar and premolar is not enough because of the structure of the head
Tooth loss over a period of time may result in absorbing the bone back into the body
Some disease may have resulted in loss of bone
In older age the sinus also gets larger so there is less space available for the dental implant

What Are the Risks?

Though this procedure is done under strict supervision and by experienced professionals, there is a slight chance of certain risks occurring during the procedure. The bone that is required to be used for the sinus uplift has to be taken from another area of your mouth or from an external source, such as artificial bone. Due to the invasive nature of the procedure, there are many pain control methods available.

This treatment is carried out with the highest level of safety and care in mind. Some of the risks include, but are not limited to:

Infection of the gums or of the sinuses may occur. However, this is uncommon and patients are observed diligently after the procedure to ensure there are no signs of possible infection
There is a small risk of the sinus membrane being punctured during the procedure. In the unlikely circumstances that this occurs, treatment may be stopped or additional work may have to be done before completing the procedure. But again this is very unlikely and the treatment is carried out with extreme precaution

Absolutely delighted with my treatment & results. I am so pleased that I did my research and chose to have my treatment with Girsh at Ascent in Dorridge. My case was not straightforward and the solution he designed was thoughtful and practical. I am genuinely thrilled with the results and would recommend to anyone.

Oops!

When Anne’s tooth broke in two, she found it difficult to eat. Instead of a crown, Anne opted for an implanted replacement from Shiv and couldn’t be happier!

Very professional & efficient.

I would highly recommend Ascent Dental.

I had a lingual brace fitted to my top teeth with Ascent Dental last year and I am very pleased with the results. I had some overcrowding and crookedness which has now been resolved and I feel much more confident with my smile! I would definitely recommend this type of brace if you are wishing to straighten your teeth invisibly, no one even noticed that I had a brace unless I pointed it out. The staff were very helpful and supportive during my treatment. I am now considering having my bottom teeth done with the same type of brace.

My wife had to attend for an extraction under their sedation treatment on the 17th October. She has extreme fear of dentistry however the clinic was mindful of her fears and showed a high degree of care and consideration during and after the treatment…

Kate Love

Very impressed with Gursh and his team with regard to orthodontic treatment. Very attentive, efficient and friendly service, making the whole process really quick and easy. Appointments for wire changes are so fast, meaning I’m in and out in minutes. Can’t recommend them highly enough.

I was hesitant at first to spend money on my teeth. I’m 60 years old and have a fear of dentist’s due to experience over the years. I have had the time of my life! I am no longer afraid to laugh or smile. AJ is amazing and kind and patient! The whole team are wonderful absolutely worth the money! Confidence is well and truly boosted! Thanks guys ❤️

Alison Jayne

I discovered the one clinic whilst searching periodontal treatments in my area on google…I felt no pain just a small amount of discomfort, he reassured me throughout in a professional and caring manner….The caring and considerate attitude of all involved showed that they cared for my dental health past present and future. I asked about future treatments, and DR Nissen advised me according to my needs .At no point, did I feel that the costs involved were the main aim but that his genuine concern was to help me gain control of my dental health.

Julie Campbell

Have received excellent care at this dentist. Have a really bad fear of dentists and I have always been shown so much patience and kindness. Really recommend them if you get anxious about dental visits!

Preith Kaur

Excellent customer service, the team really looked after me, answered all my questions, explained what was going on in my appointment. I made some enquiries for teeth alignment and they were fab, gave me all the information I needed. Highly recommend Ascent to anyone, particularly, if like me, you get nervous about a visit to the dentist!!

Started going to ascent dental care last March 2021 with the fear of having any dental work, I have always been so self conscious of my teeth from young but just lost confidence in any dentist that saw me.
Safe to say I met Jas who has filled me with confidence and put me at ease, knowing what I wanted to achieve set me up with the perfect plan, I quit smoking to achieve healthier teeth with the advice from jas and I am now towards the end of the treatment, and am so pleased with the end results!! the staff are so welcoming and the professionalism and work within is by far worth any price on the treatment you receive!
Thanks team! Amazing work!!
