Bone Grafting in Preparation for Dental Implants
Bone grafting is the process of adding bone tissue samples to areas in deficit, providing a supportive, solid structure with which dental implants can integrate. Like natural teeth, dental implants rely on a healthy jaw bone for support. Dental implants require a sufficient level of bone to effectively restore missing teeth and oral function, but also help to preserve this bone once fully integrated with the jaw bone. Even if you have suffered bone loss, you may still be a candidate for dental implants after bone grafting treatment. During the bone grafting procedure, our oral surgeons source bone tissue from a bone bank, or from your own body. To create better bone support for dental implants, they work closely with you to determine the right treatment for your specific personal and oral health needs.
Bone Grafting from Advanced Oral Surgeons
Our oral surgeons incorporate advanced technology into bone grafting procedures, including guided tissue regeneration (GTR), platelet-rich growth factors (PRGF) and bone morphogenic protein (BMP). These techniques encourage normal healing, enhanced tissue response and elicit the growth of new bone tissue in treatment areas. Using PIEZOSURGERY® technology, bone grafting procedures become more minimally invasive, limiting damage to surrounding tissue by using precise, ultrasonic vibrations to cut targeted tissue and reduce healing time. As our patient you can always be assured that your comfort and well-being come first. Along with providing excellence in bone grafting care, we also offer relaxing IV sedation and other sedation dentistry options for a comfortable, positive experience.
