Benefits of ridge augmentation
We may recommend a sinus lift procedure if you don’t have enough bone in your upper jaw. This includes situations where…
- Restores Jaw Contour: After tooth loss, your jawbone can change shape. Ridge augmentation helps restore the natural contour of your jaw, improving its appearance and function.
- Prepares for Implants: For dental implants to be successful, they need a solid foundation. This procedure builds up the bone, providing the necessary support for implants.
- Improves Facial Aesthetics: By filling in gaps and indentations in the gums and jawbone, ridge augmentation can enhance your facial structure, leading to a more youthful and healthy appearance.
- Prevents Further Bone Loss: This procedure can help prevent further deterioration of the jawbone by stimulating new bone growth and maintaining the strength and health of your jaw.

Patient Testimonial
I found Dr. Zusin about a year ago on the recommendation of my general dentist.He explained everything in detail. He said my road was long and difficult, but we would succeed. He performed my last surgery yesterday with his amazing assistant Crystal. Also, the therapy dog service is amazing. I congratulate him for providing such a great service

Dr.Zusin is great! Ive had work done previously from another doctor and had nerve damage, Dr.Zusin went above and beyond to help repair my nerve and extracted two teeth. I highly recommend going into his office, he was gentle and caring, the office was clean and the staff are very friendly! 10/10 in my opinion! Thank you Dr.Zusin!!

Is ridge augmentation needed as part of your treatment plan?
Ridge augmentation might be right for you if:
- You’ve lost teeth and your jaw doesn’t seem as full or even as before.
- There are dips or hollows in your gums where your teeth used to be.
- You’re thinking about getting dental implants.
This procedure helps fill in these hollow areas and rebuilds part of your jawbone. It’s important for dental implants because they need a strong bone to hold onto. Not only does ridge augmentation help with the placement of implants, but it also makes your jawline look more natural and smooth.
If you’ve noticed your mouth shape changing after losing teeth, or you’re planning for implants, this could be a crucial step in your care plan.

Questions about ridge augmentation? We have answers
During ridge augmentation, Dr. Zusin will place bone graft material into the area where your jawbone has receded. This material helps to promote new bone growth, restoring the original height and width of the jawbone.
Recovery varies depending on the extent of the procedure. Full healing and bone integration might take several months.
- Ridge augmentation rebuilds and reshapes areas of the jaw where teeth have been lost, primarily to enhance bone structure for dental implants or improve jawline aesthetics.
- A sinus lift is performed in the upper jaw near the back teeth. It involves lifting the sinus membrane to add bone graft material below it, increasing bone height for implant placement.
Both procedures prepare your mouth for dental implants but target different areas and address different needs.
Without the support of a strong and healthy bone structure in your upper jaw, a dental implant is more likely to fail in the future.
