What is Bone Graft?
Think of a bone graft as a procedure to rebuild the foundation for a tooth. If your jawbone is too thin or shallow for an implant—often due to tooth loss, gum disease, or anatomy—we can add bone-grafting material to the site. This material safely integrates with your own bone over several months, creating the necessary volume and density to securely support a future dental implant.
What are the benefits of Bone Graft?
-
Foundation for Implants
This is the primary benefit. Grafting creates the necessary bone volume and density in areas that are too thin or shallow, enabling the secure, long-term placement of dental implants that would otherwise not be possible.
-
Preservation of Facial Structure
After tooth loss, the jawbone deteriorates, which can cause the face to appear sunken and aged. Bone grafting helps maintain the jaw's natural contour, supporting your facial features and preventing premature aging.
-
Improved Long-Term Prognosis
By providing ample, healthy bone around an implant, grafting enhances its stability and integration. This creates a stronger biomechanical foundation, significantly increasing the long-term success rate and durability of your restoration.
-
Expanded Treatment Options
Adequate bone opens the door to more optimal and predictable treatment plans. It allows for the placement of implants in the ideal position for function and aesthetics, rather than being limited by existing bone deficiencies.
-
Prevention of Further Bone Loss
The grafting procedure halts the progressive bone resorption that follows tooth loss. The new bone that forms stabilizes the area, protecting adjacent teeth and preserving your overall oral anatomy.
-
Enhanced Aesthetic Outcomes
Sufficient bone ensures that the gum tissue above it is properly supported. This results in more natural-looking gum contours around implants or bridges, which is crucial for a seamless, aesthetic smile.
Who is a candidate?
-
Pre-Implant with Bone Loss
Individuals lacking adequate jawbone volume or density for standard dental implant placement.
-
Post-Extraction for Ridge Preservation
Those receiving immediate grafting after tooth removal to prevent natural bone collapse in the socket.
-
Sinus Lift
Patients requiring bone augmentation in the upper back jaw to create space between the sinus and jawbone for implants.
-
Severe Resorption
Individuals experiencing significant jawbone deterioration, leading to facial contour changes or unstable dentures.
