What is Bone Grafting?
Bone grafting is a surgical procedure that involves adding bone tissue to areas of the jawbone that have been lost due to injury, disease, or tooth extraction. This procedure helps to restore the bone structure, making it possible to place dental implants or secure dentures.
Why is Bone Grafting Needed?
Bone grafting is often necessary for individuals who have experienced significant bone loss in their jaw. This can occur as a result of various factors, including:
- Periodontal Disease: Gum disease can lead to bone loss around the teeth.
- Tooth Extraction: After tooth removal, the underlying bone can deteriorate over time.
- Injury: Trauma to the jaw can result in bone loss.
Who is a Candidate for Bone Grafting?
Bone grafting is ideal for individuals who have experienced significant bone loss in their jaw. This can be due to various factors such as gum disease, tooth extraction, or injury. If you are considering dental implants or wish to improve the stability of your dentures, bone grafting can provide a solid foundation for these treatments. Additionally, for those seeking to enhance their facial appearance, bone grafting can help restore a more youthful and fuller look.
The Bone Grafting Procedure
The bone grafting procedure typically involves the following steps:
- Consultation: A thorough evaluation to assess your oral health and determine the best course of treatment.
- Anesthesia: Local or general anesthesia is administered to ensure comfort during the procedure.
- Bone Graft Placement: The bone graft material, which can be harvested from your own body or synthetic, is placed in the affected area.
