What is Dental Bone Grafting?

Bone grafting is a dental surgical procedure that restores density and strength to areas of your jaw that have lost bone. Bone graft material can be obtained from a human or animal tissue bank (xenograft) or from your own body (autogenous). Bone grafting may occasionally involve the use of protein-mixed artificial bone graft material to promote bone development. Once implanted into the bone, a dental bone graft acts as a scaffold, promoting bone tissue growth and strength.

Who needs dental bone grafts?

Anyone who has lost jawbone density due to trauma, gum disease, or irreversible tooth loss can benefit from dental bone transplantation. If you have low jawbone density and are thinking about getting dental implants or personalized dentures, we strongly recommend bone grafting. Our dentists can help you decide whether a bone graft operation is best for your particular dental problem.
