Rebuild Your Jawbone With Sinus Lift And Bone Grafts in Cancun

Regain Lost Bone & Secure Your Future Implants, while enjoying a peaceful getaway in Cancun. 


With over 25 years of expertise in advanced oral surgery, we specialize in sinus lifts and bone grafts that restore bone density, maintain facial structure, and set the stage for successful dental implants.

What Exactly Are Sinus Lift And Bone Grafts?

When teeth are missing for long periods or gum disease erodes the jawbone, the sinus area can enlarge and the bone can thin out. Sinus lifts and bone grafts are specialized procedures that rebuild lost or weakened jawbone, creating a stable foundation for implants.

Sinus Lift

  • Lifts the sinus membrane in the upper jaw, filling the space with bone graft material if there isn’t enough height to place implants securely.

Bone Grafts

  • Replaces or regenerates missing bone using biocompatible materials (human donor bone, bovine grafts, synthetic hydroxyapatite, or your own bone).

Who Needs These Procedures?

  • Individuals with insufficient bone for implant support.
  • Patients who’ve experienced significant bone resorption or sinus expansion in the upper jaw.
  • Those wanting a fixed restoration but currently told they “don’t have enough bone.”

Why Choose Sinus Lift & Bone Grafts?

If your upper jaw lacks sufficient height or width, or if the maxillary sinus is too close to the jaw for implants, a sinus lift and/or bone graft can fix these issues. By adding bone to the appropriate area, we create the stability necessary for dental restorations. Here’s why it’s the ideal solution:

  • Rebuild Jawbone Integrity: Counteracts bone loss, preserving your facial structure and preventing that “sunken” look.
  • Enable Successful Implants: Gain the stability you need for implant posts, resulting in teeth that feel natural and secure.
  • Prevent Future Complications: Strengthening the jawbone helps avoid ongoing bone deterioration.
  • Expand Your Treatment Options: From single implants to full-arch solutions, these procedures make advanced restorations possible.

Step-by-Step: How the Sinus Lift and Bone Graft Process Works

Though each case varies, some patients can have implants placed simultaneously if enough bone is present, here’s a common timeline:

Phase 1: Consultation & Diagnosis

  • We review 3D scans or X-rays to assess your bone density and sinus position.
  • Discuss the best graft material—autograft, allograft, xenograft, or synthetic—depending on your unique needs.
  • Sedation options explained if you’re anxious.

Phase 2: Surgery (Days 1–5)

  • A small incision is made, and grafting material is placed in the targeted area.
  • For a sinus lift, the sinus membrane is gently raised, and bone material is added beneath it.
  • Sutures are placed, and you’re given post-op instructions (e.g., avoid blowing your nose vigorously).

Phase 3: Healing (4–6 months)

  • Over the next few months, the graft material integrates with your natural bone, forming a robust foundation.
  • You can often return home within days of the procedure, enjoying Cancun’s beaches during your initial healing.

Phase 4: Implant Placement

  • Once your jawbone is strong enough, you’ll return for implant surgery.
  • After another 3–4 months of osseointegration, you’ll receive permanent restorations (crowns or bridges).

Common Questions Our Patients Ask

What exactly is a sinus lift, and why do I need one?

A sinus lift (or sinus augmentation) is a surgical procedure that adds bone to the upper jaw by lifting the sinus membrane and placing grafting material beneath it. You may need this procedure if:

  • Your upper jaw lacks sufficient bone height for dental implants due to tooth loss, bone resorption, or natural sinus enlargement.

  • You’re planning to get implants in the upper jaw but don’t have enough bone to support them.

What Is a Bone Graft, and Why Would I Need One?

A bone graft is a surgical procedure that replaces or regenerates lost bone in the jaw. You may need this procedure if:

  • You’ve experienced bone loss due to tooth extraction, gum disease, or trauma.

  • Your jawbone is too thin or weak to support dental implants.

  • You want to restore facial aesthetics affected by bone resorption.

Am I a candidate for a sinus lift or bone graft?

If you’ve lost bone density due to extractions, gum disease, or long-term missing teeth, you may be a candidate. A 3D scan or X-ray helps determine if your jaw has enough bone volume for implants; if not, your dentist may recommend one or both procedures to achieve proper height or width.

How is a bone graft different from a sinus lift?

While both involve adding bone, a bone graft can be used in various areas of the mouth (upper or lower jaw) to rebuild lost or thin bone. A sinus lift specifically targets the upper jaw, lifting the sinus floor to accommodate new bone. Essentially, a sinus lift is one type of bone graft performed near the maxillary sinus.

How Is a Sinus Lift Performed, and Does It Hurt?

The procedure involves lifting the sinus membrane and placing bone grafting material beneath it. It’s performed under local anesthesia or sedation, so you won’t feel pain during the surgery. Post-surgery, mild discomfort or swelling is normal and can be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers.

How Long Does a Sinus Lift Take, and What’s the Recovery Like?

The procedure typically takes 1-2 hours, and most patients can return to light activities the next day. Healing takes 4-6 months, during which the grafted bone integrates with your natural bone. Dental implants can be placed once the area has fully healed.

How Is a Bone Graft Performed, and Does It Hurt?

The procedure involves placing grafting material in the targeted area to stimulate new bone growth. It’s performed under local anesthesia or sedation, so you won’t feel pain during the surgery. Post-surgery, mild discomfort or swelling is normal and can be managed with medication.
