WHAT IS BONE GRAFTING?

Bone grafting is a method of enhancing bone density where it is required to allow for the exact positioning of dental implants to get your desired results. Your own bone can be used for bone grafting, or alternatively, a range of bone substitute materials can be transported to the required region. In order to facilitate dental implant installation, modern bone grafting materials and techniques can most likely be used to graft any portion of the upper or lower jaw.

Bone grafting is used to increase the quantity of bone that is available at the location to support the dental implant. The bone graft material, which acts as a scaffold for the creation of your own natural bone, creates a natural, strong substrate for a dental implant in the months that follow therapy.

BENEFITS OF DENTAL BONE GRAFT:

–           Improved Oral Function

–           Enhanced Aesthetics

–           Long-Term Dental Health

WHO NEEDS A DENTAL BONE GRAFT?

A dental bone graft is typically required for a person who has lost bone in their jaw. This process might be advised if you:

  • Are having a tooth extracted.
  • Plan to replace a missing tooth with a dental implant.
  • Need to rebuild the jaw before getting dentures.
  • Have areas of bone loss due to gum (periodontal) disease.

A thorough assessment of the height and bone that are available in the best position for your dental implant is provided by the Dr. Ramisz Dental & Facial Cosmetic Clinic. As part of your unique treatment plan, we will inform you at your initial session if a bone grafting operation is likely to be required.
