The classical sinus lift procedure is a well-docume- nted technique and Schneiderian membrane perfora-tion is one of the most common complications. Vari-ous repairs have been developed for managing sinus membrane perforations. We describe a new suture technique of Schneiderian membrane that makes it possible to complete a sinus lift procedure that oth-erwise might have been aborted by preventing loss of the graft in the sinus cavity and secondary complica-tions, such as sinusitis.
