Bone grafting is a crucial procedure for restoring bone health and integrity. At Brighton Restorative Dentistry, we take pride in offering this essential treatment to help our patients maintain a healthy foundation for their dental health. This procedure involves transplanting bone tissue to areas where bone loss has occurred, promoting new growth and providing the necessary support for future dental treatments.
Why Bone Grafting Is Important
Bone grafting plays a vital role in ensuring the stability and success of various dental treatments. When bone loss occurs, it can affect the overall structure and function of your jaw, leading to complications. By undergoing a bone grafting procedure with Dr. Mark Ehrhardt or Dr. John Gittins, you can restore the lost bone and improve the overall health of your mouth. This procedure not only enhances the strength and density of your bone but also prepares your mouth for other dental treatments, contributing to a healthier, more functional smile.
What to Expect During the Bone Grafting Procedure
Our dentists and team are dedicated to making the bone grafting process as comfortable and stress-free as possible. The procedure typically involves:
- An initial consultation to assess the extent of bone loss and determine the best approach for your specific needs.
- The use of local anesthesia to ensure you remain comfortable throughout the procedure.
- The transplantation of bone tissue, which may be sourced from your own body or from a donor, to the affected area.
- A healing period during which the transplanted bone integrates with your existing bone, promoting new growth and strengthening the area.
