What Is Bone Grafting?
A strong foundation is important for a healthy smile. When bone loss affects the strength of your jaw, bone grafting for teeth can restore the structure needed for dental implants and long-term oral health. At Oasis Smiles Dentistry in San Diego and Vista Oasis Smiles in Vista, CA, we use advanced techniques to help patients regain bone density and improve their smiles. A dental bone graft restores lost bone in the jaw. This procedure strengthens the jaw to support an implant, stabilize existing teeth, or prepare for future treatments. Bone loss can happen due to missing teeth, gum disease, or injury. Without enough bone, dental implants may not have the support they need. A bone graft after extraction may also be necessary to prevent the jawbone from shrinking. Dental bone grafting encourages new bone growth, creating a solid base for long-term oral health. To learn more about this procedure and its benefits, contact our San Diego or Vista, CA office and schedule a consultation as soon as it's convenient.
How Does Bone Grafting Work?
The procedure starts with placing a bone grafting material into the area where bone loss has occurred. The graft can be from your own body, a donor source, or a biocompatible material. Once in place, the graft stimulates natural bone regeneration. Over time, the body replaces the graft with new bone, creating a stable structure. Healing times vary, depending on the individual and the size of the graft, but many patients see results within a few months. When the bone has fully integrated, the site is ready for further treatment, such as dental implants.
What Are the Benefits of Bone Grafting?
A dental bone graft strengthens the jaw, supports implants, and improves overall oral health. This procedure offers many advantages, whether restoring lost bone after extraction or preparing for future treatments, including:
- Alleviates further jawbone loss and deterioration
- Gives patients a more appealing, normal-looking facial appearance
- Provides a steady base for tooth restorations, such as dentures, implants, and crowns
- Encourages advancement of overall oral health
- Works to limit added damage to the teeth and jaw
