A. Sinus lifts are fairly routine and have a high success rate. Pain after surgery depends on each individual case. As with all surgery you should leave traveling a reasonable time after surgery – ayour surgeon will advise you depending on the type of surgery you have.

What are the risks associated with “sinus tenting”? When is “sinus tenting” preferable to “sinus lifting”? If either one goes wrong, am I risking life-long sinus trouble?
