During a sinus lift (sinus elevation), the inner wall of the sinus cavity is safely raised from the side of the tooth gap. The resulting cavity is then filled with a bone graft material, which is a mixture of bone chips taken from the patient's own bone and a bio-compatible, rapidlyIntegrating bone substitute material. Once the bone graft material has set, it becomes as strong as bone and allows for the secure placement of an implant-supported prosthesis.
