Why Bone Grafting Is Necessary
Jawbone loss may occur due to:
- Missing teeth left untreated
- Periodontal disease
- Trauma or injury
- Long-term denture use
- Infection or cyst removal
When bone density or volume is insufficient, restorative procedures such as Dental Implants may not have the support required for long-term stability. Bone grafting helps rebuild this foundation.
The Bone Grafting Process
Bone grafting involves placing biocompatible grafting material into the area of deficiency. Over time, the body integrates the material, encouraging natural bone regeneration.
The process typically includes:
- Comprehensive imaging and evaluation
- Removal of compromised tissue when necessary
- Placement of grafting material
- Protection of the grafted site during healing
- Monitoring of integration progress
Once sufficient healing has occurred, the area may be prepared for implant placement, including advanced solutions such as Computer Guided Implants.
In cases requiring broader reconstruction, coordination within our Restorative Dentistry services ensures comprehensive treatment planning.
Types of Bone Grafting Procedures
Bone grafting may be recommended for:
- Single-tooth implant preparation
- Multiple missing teeth areas
- Full-arch rehabilitation prior to All-on-Four Dental Implants
- Ridge preservation following extraction
If tooth removal is necessary before grafting, it may be coordinated with our Tooth Extractions service to support optimal healing conditions.
Patients throughout Cable Beach, Nassau, Paradise Island, and neighboring communities within 100 miles value our measured and methodical approach to surgical preparation.
