Elevating the Sinus Membrane – Key Points
- Stopper adjustment: The length of the osteotome should be 1mm longer than the length of the last B.Y. diamond milling bur that was used.
- Osteotome extension: Gently insert the osteotome into the osteotomy until it reaches a stop.
- Continue this process by adding 1mm length to the osteotome each time, until the sinus has been elevated to the desired level.
- Elevate the membrane 5-6mm more than the length of the last B.Y. used.
