Sinus Augmentation in Downtown Los Angeles, CA
What is Sinus Augmentation?
Sinus augmentation, also known as a sinus lift, is a bone grafting procedure that adds volume to the upper jaw in the area of your back teeth by gently lifting the sinus membrane and placing bone graft material in the space below it.
When teeth are lost in the upper arch, the jawbone beneath the sinus cavity often shrinks over time, leaving insufficient bone depth to support dental implants. Dr. Rodriguez performs this procedure to restore the bone structure needed for safe, predictable implant placement in the posterior upper jaw.

Healing & Planning
Reasons to Consider Sinus Augmentation
Patients missing upper back teeth for a long time often need sinus augmentation due to bone resorption when tooth roots are absent. The sinus cavity can encroach on the space where bone once was, limiting room for implant posts. Those with bone loss from periodontal disease, trauma, or long-term denture use may also lack sufficient depth. If you’ve been informed that you don’t have enough bone for upper jaw implants, sinus augmentation could enable your restoration.

If you have any questions about maxilla sinus augmentation, we’ve got answers.
How long does recovery from sinus augmentation take?
Most patients feel comfortable resuming normal activities within a few days, though complete bone integration typically takes several months before implants can be placed.
Is sinus augmentation performed at the same time as implant placement?
In some cases, implants can be placed at the same time as the sinus lift if sufficient bone is already present. When bone height is very limited, the procedures are staged to allow the graft to fully integrate first. Dr. Rodriguez will determine the best approach based on your imaging.
How much does sinus augmentation cost?
Cost depends on the extent of bone loss, the type of graft material used, and whether one or both sides require treatment. We provide a clear, detailed estimate at your consultation so you can plan accordingly and explore your financing options.
Does insurance cover sinus augmentation?
Some dental insurance plans offer partial coverage for bone grafting procedures when they are deemed medically necessary as part of implant treatment.
