Bone and sinus treatment

Serving patients throughout Hanley, Tunstall, Newcastle-under-Lyme and Stoke-on-Trent

When a tooth is lost, the jawbone beneath it shrinks from lack of stimulation and can change the shape of your mouth. Loss of bone can also be caused by gum disease, tooth development defects, trauma, and by previous dental procedures where efforts were not made to restore natural bone.

Before dental implant treatment can begin your dentist will first need to check that there is sufficient bone for an implant to be placed successfully. If there is insufficient bone you may need to have pre-treatment before your dental implants can be placed. This may include oral surgery procedures such as bone grafting, bone expansion or sinus lifts.

At your initial consultation our implant dentist, Dr Manoj Popat, will use x-rays and scans to establish if pre-treatment is required and will explain this further.

Pre-treatment

Bone expansion

Your dentist may recommend a bone expansion if your jawbone is too narrow for a dental implant to be fitted. This involves making a small hole into your jawbone where your implant will eventually sit and using bone graft material to widen and strengthen the bone. The bone will be left to heal before a dental implant can be successfully installed.

Bone graft

Bone grafting is a treatment that is used to strengthen the area of bone your dental implant will be inserted into. This involves taking bone from elsewhere in the mouth and placing it in the area to be strengthened. After a number of months, this will fuse together, creating a stronger base for your implant.

Sinus lift

If there is not enough space to fit a dental implant in your upper jaw, Dr Manoj may recommend a sinus lift. This involves moving the sinus membrane upwards to create space in your bone for your new tooth. Once the membrane has been moved, a bone graft will fill the space that has been created to make a suitable space for your dental implant.

Once Dr Manoj is happy your bones and gums are healthy, your dental implant treatment can begin.

I have been using the dental practice for a number of years and have been highly satisfied with the treatment I have received. I’ve always found the receptionist very helpful. And the dentist and the hygienist very good. I have no issues with the practice at all other than satisfaction.

27th November 2025

After my treatment I had to wait in reception to obtain medication and instructions for my post-procedure care. It had not been prepared in advance si I had to wait. I was in some discomfort and wanted to get back to my car to apply an ice pack. The recption staff noticed my discomfort and were very considerate aking if they could help me in any way and offering assistance when I was ready to leave. In my opinion it was an illustration 'of your motto: Putting patients first.

26th November 2025

Everybody is always so friendly. We love the fact that from the minute you walk in the door you are made to feel welcome. We are always greeted by our first names and a happy smile which makes a real difference, especially to my extremely nervous husband. The personal touch is what makes this practice stand out from any other we have used before.
