Understanding Your Treatment
What Is a Dental Bone Graft?
Dental bone grafting and augmentation are procedures used to increase the amount of bone in the jaw or other areas of the mouth. This is done to prepare for restorative dental treatments such as dental implants, bridges, or dentures. Bone grafts can also help regenerate lost tissue or repair a defect in the jaw. Several types are commonly used, including autografts taken from your own body, allografts using donor tissue, and xenografts using animal bone. Synthetic bone grafts build up the area with synthetic material and are extremely popular with most patients.
The Benefits
The Advantages of Bone Grafting
Facial Aesthetics
Restoring lost bone volume brings back your facial contours and creates a more youthful appearance than sunken jaw structure allows when you look in the mirror.
Improved Health
A graft prevents additional bone loss and promotes healthier gums, which protects the teeth that are still standing around the site for years longer than otherwise.
Lasting Results
With proper care at home, a dental bone graft can last a lifetime, making it a genuinely long-term investment in your oral health and in the stability of your smile.
What to Expect
Our Step-by-Step Process
Here is what a dental bone graft procedure involves at Smile Tustin by Dr. Ezzy.
Request an Appointment- 01
Imaging Assessment
We take X-rays to determine whether your bone is lacking density and whether grafting is needed before any implant treatment can begin.
- 02
Graft Selection
We review the graft types available, including autograft, allograft, synthetic, and xenograft, and recommend one best suited to your own anatomy.
- 03
Comfortable Anesthesia
Local anesthesia or sedation is administered on the day of surgery, depending on the complexity of your procedure, to keep you comfortable throughout.
- 04
Graft Placement
An incision exposes the bone, and the graft material is placed at the site where density has been lost over time and a membrane may protect it.
- 05
Healing Follow-Up
The site is closed and given time to heal, and follow-up appointments track how the new bone is integrating with the surrounding jawbone over time.
Is It Right for You?
Signs You May Need Bone Grafting
-
Planned Implants — You want dental implants, but X-rays show your jawbone lacks the density needed to support them securely in the condition it is in right now.
-
Missing Tooth — A tooth has been missing for some time now, and the jawbone in that area has already begun to resorb and weaken steadily in the months and years since.
-
Periodontal Loss — Periodontal disease has destroyed the bone around your teeth, which leaves the remaining support badly compromised and those teeth increasingly unstable.
-
Facial Changes — Bone loss has changed your facial contours, giving the lower portion of your face a noticeably sunken appearance that simply was not there years ago.
