It was determined that additional support would be necessary for the restoration of the upper right quadrant. A sinus lift was performed at the same time an implant was placed in the #5 position. Nine months later, two implants were placed into the graft.

NOTE:

This was one of my first sinus lifts done in about 1992. Not a great one, but it has worked for about 12 years now. Since then I have done a couple of hundred more and have greatly perfected my technique. . .
