Getting a Bone Graft

Restore your facial appearance after tooth extraction.



 

Understanding the Effects of Bone Loss

Bone loss starts to occur immediately after tooth loss, so undergoing a tooth replacement procedure with dental implants and a bone graft offers numerous benefits. Jaw bone loss can occur from tooth loss, injury or trauma to the area, and periodontal disease. Dr. Behnaz Yalda may perform a bone graft to restore lost bone and help you maintain your facial appearance.

Types of Bone Grafts

The bone graft procedure involves replacing or augmenting missing bone in areas where teeth have been lost, and may be necessary before undergoing a dental implant procedure. Dr. Yalda may perform an autogenous, allograft, or xenograft bone graft depending on how much bone needs to be restored. A ridge augmentation, ridge preservation, or sinus lift can be performed to restore lost bone in specific areas.

Undergoing a Bone Grafting Procedure

The bone graft is typically performed under local anesthesia so that we can numb the site where bone needs to be modified. Dr. Yalda will make an incision in the gums around the area where the bone will be augmented and then expose bone tissue for grafting. Bone can be removed from the chin, or harvested from another source, and then anchored in place to the jaw using small titanium screws. All incisions are closed with stitches.

Ridge Augmentation, Ridge Preservation and Sinus Lift Procedures

A ridge augmentation or ridge preservation procedure may be necessary if bone has started to shrink or deteriorate. The ridge augmentation procedure restores the natural contours of the smile. Ridge preservation procedures restore your appearance after tooth extraction. A sinus lift is often necessary before dental implant placement occurs in the upper molar regions of the mouth.

    " I was referred to Dr Yalda by my dentist for her to look at one of my teeth, which I had been having problems with for a few years. Lo and behold when Dr. Yalda looked at the tooth she told me I was going to lose the tooth! She explained my options. But I opted for an implant. It’s been a process... but, along the entire way Dr. Yalda has been there for me. She is very professional… as is her entire staff. Everyone is helpful, friendly and courteous. I will refer my friends, neighbors, and co-workers to Dr. Yalda! "

    Thank you for the excellent professional care you and your entire staff have provided me. My first impression of your office was set by Darlene’s friendly voice over the phone on the initial call for information. On my subsequent visit it was Darlene who explained what actually would be done and gave me your helpful dental implant brochure, much appreciation for I knew nothing about the process. Also her clear explanation of the actual costs, exactly what would be covered in this office and what would be needed for completion by my dentist. Everyone has had infinite patience with me in explaining each step and procedure Thank you for making a positive experience out of solving my dental problem. Love the soothing colors in the dental chair and your art work is so interesting.
