Between skull bones, air pockets named the sinuses are located .

When the teeth are lost on rear of the upper jaw,  the sinus  located above this  region expands because of air pressure and  causes the bone under that region become thinner. A certain amount of bone volume is needed in order to implement implants to replace lost teeth. The process to increase the amount of the bone by descending the base of sinus membrane is called sinus lifting.
