Building a Strong Foundation for Your Smile: Dental Bone Grafting Explained


If you're considering dental implants but lack sufficient bone structure to support them, don't worry – we have the solution. Our bone grafting procedures are designed to create a solid foundation for successful implant placement, ensuring long-lasting stability and functionality for your new smile. Let's explore the different types of dental bone grafting we offer:

1. Site Preservation


After tooth extraction, bone grafting can be performed to preserve the natural contours of the alveolar ridge and prevent bone loss. This proactive approach maintains the integrity of the jawbone and facilitates future implant placement without the need for additional procedures.

2. Bone Grafting at Time of Implant Placement


In some cases, bone grafting may be performed simultaneously with implant placement to augment deficient bone volume and optimize implant stability. This convenient approach reduces the number of surgical procedures and accelerates the overall treatment timeline, allowing for efficient and predictable outcomes.

3. Sinus Augmentation (Vertical and Lateral Approach)


Sinus augmentation, also known as a sinus lift, is performed to increase bone height in the posterior maxilla, where bone loss often occurs due to sinus expansion. Using either a vertical or lateral approach, bone graft material is placed beneath the sinus membrane to elevate it and create space for implant placement. This technique enables successful implant placement in areas with limited bone height, restoring full chewing function and aesthetics.

4. Ridge Augmentation


Ridge augmentation involves adding bone graft material to augment the width or height of the alveolar ridge, which may have deteriorated due to tooth loss or periodontal disease. By enhancing the ridge's dimensions, this procedure creates a stable foundation for implant placement and ensures optimal support for prosthetic restorations.

5. Ridge Expansion


Ridge expansion is performed to widen the alveolar ridge in cases of narrow or deficient bone anatomy. By carefully splitting and expanding the ridge using specialized instruments, bone graft material is inserted to fill the expanded space and promote new bone formation. This technique enables successful implant placement in areas with insufficient bone width, restoring symmetry and balance to the smile.

If you're considering dental implants but have concerns about bone volume, our bone grafting procedures offer a reliable solution.
