Maxillary sinus floor augmentation, also known as sinus lift, sinus graft, sinus augmentation, or sinus procedure, is a surgical procedure that involves lifting the lower Schneiderian membrane (sinus membrane) and inserting a bone graft to increase the amount of bone in the posterior maxilla (upper jaw bone), in the area of the premolar and molar teeth.

A sinus lift is a surgical procedure in Belgium used to increase the amount of bone between the maxillary sinuses and the jawbone to enable dental implants in areas with insufficient bone height.
The process involves lifting the sinus membrane and adding bone graft material. Recovery time can take up to 6 months.
