Sinus Lift
In the Tumwater, Olympia and Lacey Area
Sinus Lift at Safe Harbor Dental
A sinus lift, or sinus augmentation, is a procedure that increases the amount of bone in the upper jaw by lifting the sinus membrane and adding bone material. This is often necessary for patients looking to place dental implants in the upper back jaw.
Why Choose Sinus Lift at Safe Harbor Dental
We use advanced imaging technology to carefully plan and execute sinus lift procedures with precision, ensuring that you have the bone density needed for successful implants.
Who Requires a Sinus Lift?
Individuals who lack sufficient bone height in the upper jaw or those whose sinuses are too close to the jaw due to congenital conditions or bone loss after tooth extraction are ideal candidates for a sinus lift. By choosing board-certified surgeons like Dr. Lance Bowers, patients in Tumwater can ensure that their procedure is performed with the highest level of expertise and care, maximizing the chances for successful dental implant integration.

"Dr. Bowers has been taking good care of my teeth for 6 or 7 years. That includes installing a crown. He has also graciously attended to a couple of minor flare-ups, such as a stuck and irritating food particle. He has excellent staff, and I have experienced gentle, skilled attention on every visit. I would not hesitate to recommend him to a friend or family member."
