Rebuild Your Smile With Expert Bone Grafting Solutions
Bone deterioration caused by severe gum disease or infection used to mean the loss of permanent teeth and normal function. Now, thanks to bone grafting technology and the experts at Bliss Dental & Orthodontics in Lubbock, TX, patients can restore lost bone support and improve their quality of life.
How Bone Grafting Works
Bone grafting involves the insertion of bone material in the part of the jaw that has become unhealthy. It is done to provide patients with limited bone a healthy scaffold for implanting dental implants. The graft encourages your own bone to grow, allowing implants to be safely placed and restoring both functionality and appearance.
Advantages of Bone Grafting
- Preventing tooth loss: A loose tooth can become more stable with a minor bone grafting procedure.
- Preventing bone resorption: After tooth extraction, our expert places a bone graft in the extraction site to prevent future bone loss.
- Strengthening dental implants: When replacing lost teeth with dental implants, a bone graft may be necessary for support in areas where bone loss has occurred.
- Sturdier jawbone: Grafting helps reconstruct bone, providing a solid foundation for implants.
- Prevents additional bone loss: Prevents further bone loss and maintains the jaw's shape.
- Enhances implant success: A bone-to-bone increase in the area of need increases the chances of a stable implant.
- Recreates natural use: Allows you to chew, talk, and smile with confidence.
Process of Getting Bone Grafting
We begin with a thorough assessment at Bliss Dental & Orthodontics to determine the amount of bone required. During the process, a grafting material will be inserted into the areas of the bone with lower density, whether from your own bone, a donor, or a synthetic material. This material gradually integrates with your existing bone over time.
