Sinus Lift Surgery in Westlake, TX
More bone height where implants need it most. A faster, gentler approach to making the upper jaw implant ready.
What Is a Sinus Lift?
A sinus lift is a procedure that restores bone height in the upper jaw, where the sinus sits above the molars. When that bone is too thin for a dental implant, the sinus membrane is gently raised so new bone can form beneath it.
A sinus lift gently raises the sinus membrane and adds bone beneath it, restoring the height an implant needs to anchor securely. At Stone Dental Implant Center, Dr. Stone offers the iRaise sinus lift technique, which takes about 20 to 25 minutes under local anesthesia, rather than the hour-long procedure that traditionally requires stronger IV sedation.

A Faster Path to Implant-Ready Bone
Restores the bone height lost above the upper molars, so patients once told they lacked bone for implants can move forward.
The iRaise approach takes about 20 to 25 minutes under local anesthesia, avoiding the longer procedure and heavier sedation of the standard method.
Adds healthy bone volume where it matters most, giving upper implants the secure, lasting anchor they need.
The Sinus Lift Process at Stone Dental Implant Center
1. Consultation & 3D Scan
A 3D scan shows the exact height of bone below your sinuses and how much needs to be restored before an implant can be placed.
2. Choosing the Approach
Dr. Stone determines whether the minimally invasive iRaise technique is right for your case, or another approach better fits your anatomy.
3. Raising the Sinus
The sinus membrane is gently lifted and grafting material is placed beneath it, rebuilding the bone height the upper jaw has lost.
4. Healing & New Bone Growth
Over the following months, new bone matures in the grafted area, forming a solid foundation for an implant.
5. Ready for Implants
Once the bone has strengthened, the site can support a secure, lasting dental implant.

A sinus lift adds bone beneath the sinus membrane in the upper jaw, restoring the height needed to place a dental implant where bone has thinned or been lost.
The upper back jaw often lacks enough bone for an implant after molars are lost, because the sinus expands into that space. In more than half of these cases a sinus lift is needed to create a secure foundation.
iRaise is a minimally invasive sinus lift that Dr. Stone performs in about 20 to 25 minutes under local anesthesia, rather than the traditional hour-long procedure that often requires stronger IV sedation.
Most patients find it far easier than expected, especially with the iRaise technique under local anesthesia. Mild soreness or swelling for a few days afterward is normal and managed with standard pain relief.
New bone needs several months to mature before it can support an implant. Your exact timeline depends on how much bone was added, which Dr. Stone maps out at your consultation.
