Abstract
Implant dentistry has become an excellent treatment modality since its inception into modern era of dentistry. An adequate quantity and quality of bone is essential for successful implant therapy. The posterior maxilla presents several challenges to the implantologist where ridge resorption and sinus pneumatization are often encountered. The sinus lift treatment procedure is carried out to raise the sinus floor above molar and premolar area. This involves lifting the sinus membrane and to make the space for putting bone graft material thus making room for new bone formation at the site for rehabilitation of patients for implant placement. An indirect technique for sins lift will be presented.
