Sinus Lift Surgery

Sinus List Surgery Cost Turkey – Asli Tarcan Dental Clinic

Sinus lift surgery adds bone to the upper jaw, providing a stable foundation for dental implants, improved chewing function, and long-lasting results.

As Seen In The Press

When there is insufficient bone in the upper jaw under the sinus, sinus lift surgery is performed. It increases the upper jaw’s bone density and strength, allowing it to support a dental implant. If you are thinking about getting dental implants but don’t have much space between your sinuses and your upper jaw, Asli Tarcan Dental Clinic offers sinus lift in Turkey.

How to avoid a sinus lift is the common question, and the answer is, it depends upon the types of implants you need. Short or mini implants may not need a bone graft for dental implants. But, in case you need it, we are available right at your service.

Our qualified oral surgeons precisely lift the sinus, creating enough space for the implants to stay firm and stable. We offer 70% lower costs, support in English, and help you with travel and hotel arrangements and bookings.

What is Sinus Lift Surgery?

Sinus lift is a procedure that is usually done as preparatory surgery before dental implants. Patients who have very little space between their sinus and the upper jaw need this procedure that adds extra bone to the upper jaw, making it stronger and creating more space between the sinus and the jaw.

It helps not only the implants to stick better and stay stable, but also helps with chewing, eating, and speaking. This is a much-needed procedure before the dental implants for patients who need it for the success of the implants.

Types Of Sinus Lift Procedure in Turkey

There are mainly three types of sinus lift surgeries, including the external sinus lift with no existing bone, the external sinus lift with some existing bone, and the internal sinus lift with some existing bone. The condition of your teeth helps us determine which of the types will be suitable for you.

External Sinus Lift: No Existing Bone

External sinus lift is a procedure that is done for patients with no existing or very thin bone. In it, we lift the sinus from the outside (cheek side) and add the bone graft to create new bone. The implant cannot be implanted directly after that since the bone has not healed adequately. We wait for the new bone to mend and fuse with the jaw. When it has fused and healed, we undertake the second operation, which is to place implants.

External Sinus Lift: Some Existing Bone

It’s the type of external sinus lift done for patients who have some existing bone. The sinus is lifted from the cheek side, and the bone graft is added to strengthen the jaw. Just like the above procedure, we can’t place the implants right after it until the bone is healed.

Internal Sinus Lift – Some Existing Bone

Internal sinus lift is for patients who have some existing bone and need a small lift. In it, we raise the sinus through the implant hole in the mouth, and the bone graft may be pushed through the same hole. The implant can be placed at the same time, as it’s not very invasive and doesn’t need a separate time for proper healing.

Advantages Of Sinus Lift Procedure

Advantages Of Sinus Lift Procedure

Sinus lift has many advantages, especially for dental implants. It’s an integral part of the success of the implants

Allows Dental Implants

When the upper jaw doesn’t have enough bone or it’s too close to the sinus, the implants can’t be placed and stay firm. By lifting the sinus, we ensure that there’s enough space between both of the parts, and the implants can sit firmly and stay stable for years.

Improves Chewing & Speaking

By adding the bone to the jaw, we make it strong, and the chewing, speaking, and eating get better. You no longer have trouble eating your favorite hard foods.

Enhances Smile

The implants look natural and attractive. Also, the overall facial shape gets improved, giving you confidence about your smile and appearance.

Supports Facial Structure

When a bone graft is inserted into the upper jaw, it stops the jaw from shrinking following tooth loss. This prevents the cheeks and face from sagging, resulting in a more natural appearance.

Increases Implant Stability

The extra bone on the jaw ensures that the implants can bond firmly and stay stable for years without loosening or falling off. It makes the implants long-lasting and also improves the function of the teeth.

Who Are The Ideal Candidates For Sinus Lift?

Patients who meet these conditions are suitable for a sinus lift before dental implants.

  • Healthy adults with no serious medical conditions.
  • Non-smokers are advised to reduce healing complications.
  • Not enough bone in the upper jaw for implants.
  • Committed to excellent oral hygiene.
  • Understand risks and recovery timeline.

Sinus Lift Procedure At Asli Tarcan Dental Clinic

  • Assessment: Our dentist consults with you and checks your mouth and jaw. They may take a 3D CBCT scan to see the bone condition, which helps determine if a sinus lift is needed and what type.
  • Anesthesia & Location: We use local anesthesia for simple cases in the clinic, while for complex cases, we perform the procedure in the hospital under general anesthesia.
  • Surgery: When the surgical area is numbed, we cut open the gum to expose the jawbone and make a small window in it to reach the sinus membrane. The bone graft is placed under the membrane, and the collagen membrane may also be added to keep the graft in place. When the procedure is done, we stitch the gum closed.
  • After Surgery: Rest assured, if you feel swelling, bleeding, or pain following the operation, this is normal recovery. To address the symptoms, we give our patients antibiotics and anti-inflammatory medications. After a week, we remove the stitches.
  • Healing & Implant Placement: When the bone graft is fused with the jaw, which usually takes around 4 to 9 months, we call you back and place the dental implants. Our oral surgeons also offer you aftercare tips for proper healing and success.

Risks Of Sinus Elevation Surgery You Must Know About

  • Pain
  • Swelling
  • Bruising
  • Delayed healing
  • Infection (rare)
  • Sinus membrane tear (possible complication)

What Is The Recovery Of Sinus Elevation?

The recovery of the sinus elevation procedure includes mild pain and swelling, which is totally normal and subsides over time. Take the painkillers and the anti-inflammatories that we prescribed to you to manage the pain and the swelling. Rest for one to two weeks to allow the bone to mend and fuse more quickly with the jawbone. Avoid vigorous activities until the bone is completely healed. Gradually resume normal work.

FAQ’s

Turkey is by far the most affordable place to get sinus lift surgery. It costs only $650 – $700 (Per Side) to get the procedure, while in other countries, the cost may be much higher.

No, it’s not serious at all. We do it as a routine procedure for most of our patients before the dental implants. You recover from it within a few weeks and return to your normal life.

A sinus lift is a minor surgical procedure that adds bone to the upper jaw, right below your sinus cavity. It’s usually needed when the bone height is too low to support dental implants securely. By lifting the sinus membrane and inserting a bone graft, the jaw becomes strong enough to hold implants for the long term.

At Asli Tarcan Dental Clinic, a typical sinus lift procedure takes about 45 minutes to one hour. The duration can vary depending on whether it’s an internal or external sinus lift and the amount of bone graft required.

No, it isn’t painful because it’s done under local or general anesthesia. You might feel slight pressure but not pain. After the surgery, mild swelling or soreness is common, which can be managed easily with prescribed medications.

Most patients recover from sinus lift surgery in 1 to 2 weeks. However, the complete bone healing and fusion process may take 4 to 9 months, depending on your individual case. Once healed, the implants can be safely placed.

Yes, in some cases, particularly with internal sinus lifts where some bone already exists, implants can be placed during the same surgery. For external sinus lifts, the bone needs time to heal first before implants are added.

Turkey combines affordable prices, internationally trained surgeons, and modern dental facilities. Clinics like Asli Tarcan provide world-class care, English-speaking support, and luxury accommodation, all at a fraction of the cost found in Western Europe.

Risks are rare but can include temporary swelling, bruising, minor bleeding, infection, or a small tear in the sinus membrane. At Asli Tarcan Clinic, these are minimized through advanced surgical techniques and thorough pre-surgery scans.

While smokers can undergo the procedure, it’s not recommended because smoking can slow healing and reduce the bone graft’s success rate. Quitting at least two weeks before and after surgery is strongly advised.

You can usually fly 7 to 10 days after your sinus lift, depending on your healing progress. Always consult your dental surgeon before traveling to ensure sinus pressure won’t interfere with recovery.
