Bone Grafting In Wayland Family Dental Care
Defining A Dental Bone Graft
A dental bone graft is a procedure that is often necessary for patients who are considering dental implant placement. Dental implants are a popular and effective solution for missing teeth, but in order to ensure successful implant placement, the jawbone must have sufficient density and strength. If the jawbone has deteriorated due to injury, periodontal disease, or other factors, a bone graft may be needed to restore it to the necessary level of strength and density.
Creating A Solid Foundation
During a bone grafting procedure, our skilled dental professionals will use bone grafting material to fill the damaged area of the jawbone. This material serves as a scaffold that promotes the growth of new bone cells, which over time will fuse with the existing bone and create a stable foundation for the implant.
Benefits Of A Bone Graft
The benefits of bone grafting extend beyond just implant placement. A stronger and more stable jawbone can also improve the appearance of the jawline and restore the overall function of the jaw. Additionally, bone grafting can prevent further bone loss and improve oral health.
