What Is Bone Grafting?
Bone grafting is a vital surgical procedure used to address deficiencies in the jawbone. This technique is often necessary when the bone structure is compromised due to tooth loss, injury, or bone disease. Without sufficient bone volume, dental implants and other restorative options may not be viable. Bone grafting provides a solution by enhancing bone density and volume, creating a solid foundation for implants and ensuring the long-term success of restorative treatments. Our practice emphasizes a gentle, effective approach to bone grafting, ensuring a smooth and comfortable experience with personalized care. By choosing us, you benefit from our expertise in delivering compassionate and precise treatments tailored to your needs.
Am I a Good Candidate for Bone Grafting?
Bone grafting may be necessary if you have experienced significant bone loss due to tooth extraction, trauma, or periodontal disease. When the jawbone has deteriorated, it can hinder the placement of dental implants or other restorative options. This procedure helps restore and augment bone density, creating a solid foundation for implants and ensuring their stability. Our team will assess your specific situation and determine whether bone grafting is required to achieve optimal results. By addressing bone deficiencies, we can enhance your ability to receive effective dental treatments and improve your oral health.
How is the bone grafting procedure performed?
Bone grafting involves placing bone material into the jawbone to rebuild and strengthen areas with insufficient bone density. The procedure is done under local anesthesia, ensuring you are comfortable. The grafting material integrates with existing bone over time, promoting new growth.
What should I expect during recovery?
Recovery from bone grafting typically involves some swelling and discomfort, which is manageable with prescribed medications. It generally takes a few months for the graft to fully integrate with your natural bone. Follow aftercare instructions for a smooth recovery process.
Are there risks associated with bone grafting?
Bone grafting is generally safe, but risks include infection, graft rejection, or complications. These risks are greatly minimized with careful surgical planning and adherence to aftercare. Your surgeon will provide guidance to help manage potential issues and ensure a successful outcome.
Patient Testimonials
“Great office! Very friendly and professional. Dr. Kim and Maya dispelled most of my anxiety around having surgery and their Front staff, Mari and Rebecca, were so welcoming and supportive. They explained in detail the costs of my planned treatment so I fully understood. They were prepared to answer last minute questions about surgery and I left knowing I’d be safe in the hands of these very capable and caring staff.”
“We arrived at Jawnt through a triangulation of care with a dentist, orthodontist, and then an oral surgeon – all through referrals. We found ourselves in need of a same-day consult and tooth extraction, and from start to finish the team at Jawnt was clear, compassionate, and consummately professional. In particular, their chair-side manner with my anxious, ASD kiddo were above and beyond. They were communicate and responsive to her needs and comfort throughout her procedure. Highly recommend!”
“This office is a beautiful new gem to Shoreline! Professional, caring, quick, and over all great experience! The office itself is super clean and modern! If anyone needs great quality oral surgery then, this is the place to do at!”
