It is performed when there is insufficient bone in the upper jaw to support dental implants. There are two types of sinus lifting: closed and open. In this blog post, we will discuss the differences between the two procedures, and <a href=\"https:\/\/drkasapoglu.com\/en\/meet-dr-kasapoglu\/\">Dr. Berk Kasapoglu<\/a> will provide his recommendations for when each procedure is appropriate.<\/p><p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: left;\">Closed sinus lifting, also known as the lateral window technique, involves making a small incision in the gum tissue and lifting the sinus membrane to make room for the bone graft material. This procedure is less invasive than open sinus lifting, and it requires less recovery time. However, closed sinus lifting is not always suitable for patients who have significant bone loss or a thin sinus membrane. In these cases, open sinus lifting may be a better option.<\/p><p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: left;\">Open sinus lifting, also known as the crestal approach, involves making a small hole in the jawbone near the sinus and lifting the sinus membrane through the hole. The bone graft material is then placed in the space created between the sinus membrane and the jawbone. This procedure is more invasive than closed sinus lifting, and it requires a longer recovery time. However, open sinus lifting is often necessary for patients who have significant bone loss or a thin sinus membrane.<\/p><p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/drkasapoglu.com\/en\/meet-dr-kasapoglu\/\">Dr. Berk Kasapoglu<\/a> recommends that the choice between closed and open sinus lifting should be made on a case-by-case basis. Factors such as the extent of bone loss, the thickness of the sinus membrane, and the patient&#8217;s overall health should be taken into consideration when deciding which procedure to perform. In general, closed sinus lifting may be sufficient for patients with minimal bone loss and a thick sinus membrane, while open sinus lifting may be necessary for patients with more extensive bone loss or a thin sinus membrane.<\/p><p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: left;\">Dr. Kasapoglu also emphasizes the importance of selecting a qualified and experienced implant dentist for the sinus lifting procedure. Both closed and open sinus lifting require a high level of skill and expertise, and choosing the right dentist can significantly affect the success of the procedure. A qualified dentist will carefully evaluate the patient&#8217;s individual needs and use the most appropriate technique for their specific case.<\/p><p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: left;\">In conclusion, both closed and open sinus lifting are viable options for patients who require additional bone in the upper jaw for dental implants. The choice between the two procedures should be made based on the individual patient&#8217;s needs and overall health. <a href=\"https:\/\/drkasapoglu.com\/en\/meet-dr-kasapoglu\/\">Dr. Berk Kasapoglu<\/a> recommends seeking the advice of a qualified implant dentist to determine which procedure is best for each patient. With the right care and expertise, patients can achieve successful outcomes with either procedure.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-49958fb elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"49958fb\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-a7eb132\" data-id=\"a7eb132\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sinus lifting is a common procedure in implant dentistry.
