Everyone requires a beautiful smile and more than healthy teeth. If you have lost one or more teeth, then dental implants are the best way to replace missing teeth. Dental implants can produce amazing results and restore single or multiple teeth and in a way that is long lasting and regain your beautiful smile with it. But you may need some additional procedure, which is called Bone Grafting or Bone Augmentation.
Bone Grafting is a surgical procedure which is used to fix the problems with bones and joints. If you missing a tooth due to gum disease or decay problems, then the jaw Bone will begin to recede. When you lose your teeth you also start losing bone in your jaw. Even if your jawbone has sustained damage over time, bone grafting can help to strengthen your jaw for dental implants. Bone Grafting is the process which defines building a bone in an attempt to place the tooth implants.
Why Do We Lose Bone?
Tooth loss is a common problem faced by millions of people. However, when teeth are lost or if you have severe dental problems which caused you can lose your teeth: periodontal disease, dental caries or cavities, gum disease, infection and any sort of accident, your alveolar bone can begin to diminish. Your natural teeth are surrounded by a type of bone which is called Alveolar Bone. When teeth are removed, then bones are resorbed whereas with periodontal disease. It is destroyed by infections or bacteria and the loss of bone can eventually lead to tooth loss.
How Does Bone Grafting Work?
Bone grafting is a common procedure for adding a new bone to your jaw. Your dentist will decide to take a section of bone from another area of your body or using a special bone grafting material to strengthen your jaw bone. There are different bone grafting procedures that your dentist can be used for strength your new tooth all-on-4 implants. After some time, the graft creates new bone to help dental implants fit securely in the mouth.
Why Would I Need Bone Grafting?
Your teeth are important for more than smiling, eating and talking for us. You may not realize that implants inserted directly into the jawbone, sometimes your alveolar bone can begin to diminish. If this bone is missing, then it must be needed to replace the appropriate bone grafting or bone augmentation using different techniques. Losing teeth over time robs your jaw bone from receiving that stimulation, and as a result, your jaw bone becomes thin and brittle. Bone grafting can also help to provide better aesthetics once you’re missing teeth are restored.
