Common Questions About Bone Grafts
What is a bone graft?
If you have a weak or thin jawbone and are unable to get dental implants, a bone graft can make implants a reality. Your dentist will carefully insert synthetic bone material in your gum. Over the next few months, this material will stimulate the growth of new bone cells in your jaw. Soon, your jaw will be strong enough to support implants and replacement teeth.
Can bone grafts save teeth?
A bone graft can save teeth you are at risk of losing from periodontal (gum) disease. In advanced cases of gum disease, inflammation can attack the bone surrounding your teeth. A grafting procedure will encourage the bone to regenerate, so you won’t lose teeth. Treating gum disease in its early stages will avoid the need for a graft.
Are bone grafts painful?
We numb your mouth with local anesthesia before your grafting procedure, so you shouldn’t feel a thing during treatment. You can also elect to receive sedation to make you less aware of your surroundings while we work. Any discomfort following your procedure can typically be controlled by taking an over-the-counter pain reliever.
