Prepare for dental implants with a sinus lift in Katy, TX. Our expert oral surgeons provide sinus augmentation to restore bone for lasting implant success.
If enough bone between the upper jaw ridge and the bottom of the sinus is available to stabilize the implant well, sinus augmentations and implant placement can sometimes be performed as a single procedure. If not enough bone is available, the Sinus Augmentation will have to be performed first, then the graft will have to mature for several months, depending upon the type of graft material used. Once the graft has matured, the implants can be placed.
Justin R. Brock, DDS, MD, brings over 15 years of experience in oral and maxillofacial surgery, with a focus on dental implants, bone grafting, and advanced jaw reconstruction. He uses Cone Beam CT imaging and digital scanning to plan each procedure with expertise.
