Bone Grafting

We offer a range of bone grafting techniques tailored to your specific needs:

• Bone Augmentation: This procedure involves adding bone material to increase jawbone volume and density, providing a strong foundation for dental implants or other restorative procedures. We use various types of bone grafts, carefully selecting the best option for your individual situation.
• Sinus Lift: This specialized procedure is ideal for patients with insufficient bone in the upper jaw due to the maxillary sinus. We gently lift the sinus membrane and add bone graft material, creating enough space for dental implants.
• Ridge Preservation: This proactive approach is performed immediately after tooth extraction to minimize bone loss and preserve the natural shape of the jaw ridge. This can simplify future implant placement and enhance the aesthetics of your restored smile.

What to Expect During and After Your Bone Grafting Procedure

Bone grafting is typically a minor surgical procedure performed under local anesthesia or sedation, ensuring your comfort throughout. The specific steps involved will depend on the type of bone graft you need. Generally, it involves:

• Making a small incision in your gum tissue
• Placing the bone graft material
• Closing the incision with sutures

Recovery time varies, but most patients experience minimal discomfort and can resume their normal activities within a few days. We’ll provide you with detailed aftercare instructions, including pain management and oral hygiene tips, to ensure a smooth and successful healing process.
