If you have lost a tooth in the upper jaw and Dr. Burton Melton finds out the bone where your tooth once lied has started to deteriorate, he may need to perform a sinus lift before you receive a dental implant here at Implant Dentistry of the Southwest. This is done by gently lifting the sinus back to its original position and placing a bone graft to add support for your new restoration. Give us a call today at 505-883-7744 to schedule a consultation with our prosthodontist and learn more about sinus lifts in Albuquerque, New Mexico.
