The gap between them is filled with bone graft which provides an adequate foundation on which future implants can be placed. </span>


<span class="colour" style="color:windowtext">Sinus lift : This technique is also known as sinus augmentation which is used to increase and reconstruct bone height in the upper jaw, near the molar and premolar teeth.
