Improve Your Quality of Life With a Bone Graft Procedure & Dental Implants

Modern dental implants are one of the greatest revolutions in dentistry. Most implants are made from titanium, a metal that chemically fuses with your jawbone. The implant and bone actually become one. This creates a stable base for replacement teeth. However, implants need a certain amount of bone to bond successfully. After losing teeth, you’ll lose bone mass that is critical to keeping implants in place.

That’s where a bone graft procedure comes in. Your dentist will:

  • Place bone material (from a donor or synthetic material) in the areas where you’ve lost bone mass
  • Wait a few short months for new bone to grow
  • Coordinate your dental implant placement with a trusted oral surgeon
  • Place your new teeth after the implants and bone have fused

Soon, you’ll have regained all your teeth. You can smile and eat with abandon! Your quality of life will improve greatly once you have a full mouth of functional teeth.

If you believe you could benefit from bone grafts in D’Iberville, call Back Bay Family Dentistry today at 228-220-2117. You can also request an appointment online.

Common Questions About Bone Grafts

What is a bone graft?

A bone graft strengthens your jawbone after you have lost teeth. Bone loss is a consequence of tooth loss since the tooth is no longer there to stimulate the bone underneath it. We’ll insert bone material in the socket and cover it to protect the area. Over time, the material will actually become part of your bone as it stimulates new growth. Because your bone is stronger, you can become a candidate for dental implants.

Are bone grafts necessary?

There are many cases where bone grafts are necessary. The most common reason we suggest a bone graft is if you have a thin bone but want dental implants placed. Sometimes, we recommend this as soon as your tooth is extracted to prevent as much bone loss as possible. Bone grafts can also help prevent tooth loss from gum disease.

Are bone grafts safe?

When done by a highly skilled dental professional such as your dentist at our office, bone grafts are safe. Dental practitioners need training in this treatment and must do the proper examination before recommending it. Still, it is not a complex procedure. We perform it routinely at our practice. We can discuss any possible negative effects with you during the preparation stages.
