How Bone Grafting Works

Bone grafting is a surgical procedure that enhances the volume and density of your jawbone, providing a solid foundation for dental implants. The process begins with a detailed consultation and evaluation, where we assess the condition of your jawbone using advanced imaging technology. This assessment helps us determine the extent of bone loss and the specific areas that require grafting.

During the bone grafting procedure, bone material is placed in the areas of the jaw that lack sufficient density. The graft material may come from your own body (autograft), a donor source (allograft), or a synthetic material designed to encourage bone growth. The choice of graft material depends on your specific needs and the extent of bone loss.

After the graft material is placed, your body begins the process of bone regeneration. Over the following months, the grafted material integrates with your natural bone, gradually building up the jawbone’s strength and volume. This process is crucial for creating a stable base that can securely hold dental implants. Once the grafted bone has fully healed and integrated, you will be ready for the next stage of dental implant placement.

The Importance of Bone Grafting for Dental Implants

Bone grafting is essential for patients who have experienced bone loss due to tooth loss, gum disease, or other factors. Without sufficient bone density, dental implants may not have the support they need to remain stable and secure. Bone grafting addresses this issue by providing the necessary bone structure to support the implants, ensuring long-term success and stability.

In addition to enhancing the stability of dental implants, bone grafting also helps preserve the natural contours of your face. Bone loss in the jaw can lead to a sunken appearance, affecting your overall facial aesthetics. By restoring the bone structure, grafting helps maintain your facial profile and contributes to a more youthful and natural appearance.
