I was wondering is a sinus lift a common procedure?

Relatively common: Inadequate volume of bone in the posterior maxilla is remedied by a sinus lift, allowing for the placement of dental implants in that area.

Dr Niazi agreed

Definitely, yes: Sinus Lifts are common, routine procedures. It's sometimes called a sinus augmentation.
