What is Bone Grafting?
Bone grafting is a dental procedure used to fix weak or missing bone in your jaw. It's needed when there's not enough healthy bone to support dental implants or other treatments. This can happen due to tooth loss, gum disease, or aging. Bone grafting helps rebuild the bone, making it strong enough for dental work.
Benefits of Bone Grafting
Supports Dental Implants:
It makes the jaw strong enough to hold dental implants.
Improves Look and Function:
It helps implants, dentures, or crowns fit and look natural.
Prevents Future Problems:
It stops further bone loss and makes it easier to replace missing teeth.
Keeps Jawbone Healthy:
It prevents more bone loss, keeping your jaw stable.
How does it work?
Bone grafting adds bone material to the areas where bone is missing. Over time, it fuses with your natural bone, making the jaw strong enough for dental treatments.
