Bone and sinus treatment

Serving patients throughout Emsworth, Hayling Island and Havant

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 may 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, we 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 we are happy your bones and gums are healthy, your dental implant treatment can begin.

25th July 2026

I have been a patient with this practice for many years and throughout all of this time every aspect of the services provided have been excellent - the reception team, the dental Clinician and the dental Hygenist.

24th July 2026

Both dentist and hygienist were on time, treatment was explained and carried out painlessly.

24th July 2026

Everything was exceptional, from reception to the Clinician and the nurse was just great.I have been a patient for many years and would continue to come for my check up's but I am moving from the area so it will be impossible for me to attend.It will be a hard job to find a comparable practice.

23rd July 2026

All staff, particularly the dentist, displayed the appearance of great competence, ability and sensitivity at all stages of my experience. I was made to feel welcome by a very friendly team.

22nd July 2026

Everyone is highly professional while maintaining a relaxed and friendly demeanor. That helps to put me at ease when feeling stressed about having a procedure, which is most of the time. I don't think I'll ever say that I enjoy going to the dentist, but it's less traumatic when you trust the team you're working with.

20th July 2026

The whole team put you at ease and explain what they are doing and why.

I can't fault my experience with Stephen. He has been amazing throughout my treatment to straighten my front teeth. He is never in a rush and always takes the time to talk me through every step of the process, making sure I feel comfortable. I would highly recommend Stephen to anyone considering treatment he’s a great dentist.

Very personable staff from recepcionist to dentist

8th July 2026

The dentist Stephen is always so kind, friendly and reassuring. He is also very good at explaining everything in an accessible and meaningful way. He really takes the time to talk things through and outline all the options available and their pros and cons to help me make an informed choice. He remembers all the previous treatments I have had and checks in with how they went. He comes across as knowledgeable and skilled which makes me feel safe and reduces any anxiety.

8th July 2026

I’ve been a patient with Envisage for a number of years now so everything is very familiar and easy with the team. Tara the hygienist and Celehte my dentist are always very positive and encouraging. Almost a pleasure to attend the dentist!

5th July 2026

Staff are incredibly warm and friendly. I attended with my son for his appointments too and they were fantastic with him. The hygienist in particular was brilliant at making him feel safe and understand what she was doing (it was his first time). Thank you.

2nd July 2026

Explained the the treatment I need and gave me list of priority to which I agreed.

2nd July 2026

The friendliness of all the staff at Envisage but above all the trust that I had in Celeste's careful work which made my treatment painfree and very effective. I also like the approach to preventive treatment rather than waiting to see a possible worse treatment in future.
