What is Bone Grafting?

Bonding is a common cosmetic procedure that can be done comfortably in our office. Unlike other treatments, bonding typically doesn’t require any type of anesthetic to complete. Bonding uses a material known as composite resin to carefully fill in gaps, spaces and chipped areas for a beautifully finished smile. Most bonding work can last for roughly a decade before it should be replaced with new material.

Why is Bone Grafting needed?

The most common reason for needing bone grafting is because you have areas of bone loss around your jaw. Gum disease is an incredibly common condition that can cause bone loss over time. Likewise, having teeth removed can eventually have an impact on the bone underneath. In either case, a bone grafting is essential if you’re planning on having implants placed or wearing a denture.

Who is a candidate for Bone Grafting?

To determine if you might need bone grafting done, we will conduct both an exam and take x-rays. The x-rays can help alert us if there are areas of bone loss around the jaw and if so, the best way to go about placing the new bone material. We will consult with you to determine the best course of action when placing the bone and having the procedure done in our office.

What happens during Bone Grafting?

The first step is to consult with you and determine what type of bone material is right for your needs. We will then administer a sedative of your choice and make an incision through the gums. The bone material is placed and a bone growth factor is applied to the area to help the bone blend well with the surrounding material. Once the bone has healed and fused with its surrounding area, we will schedule you to come in for an implant or to have a new denture made. Bone grafting surgeries are easy, quick and help to improve the look of your smile.
