Bone grafts are essential in dental care when patients need additional bone support to maintain a healthy, functional smile. At Steven L Rattner, DDS, PA & Associates, we are dedicated to providing personalized bone grafting procedures tailored to meet your unique dental needs.
Understanding the Need for Bone Grafts
Bone grafts are often necessary when the natural bone structure in your jaw has deteriorated due to tooth loss, gum disease or other factors. This procedure involves using natural or synthetic materials to replace or augment the missing bone, providing a stable foundation for dental implants or other restorative treatments. Our dentist and team carefully assess your condition to determine the most suitable grafting technique, ensuring that your bone structure is strong enough to support your desired dental outcome.
The Bone Grafting Process
The bone grafting process is meticulously planned and executed with your comfort and long-term oral health in mind. The procedure typically involves the following steps:
- Evaluation: A comprehensive examination, including imaging, is conducted to assess your bone density and structure.
- Grafting: The selected grafting material is placed in the area needing reinforcement, with precision and care.
- Healing: Over time, the graft integrates with your natural bone, providing a solid base for future dental procedures.
We ensure that each step is performed with the highest standards of care, using advanced technology and techniques to promote optimal healing and results.
Achieving a Healthier Smile
Bone grafts are a pivotal part of achieving a healthier, more complete smile. By restoring the bone structure in your jaw, this procedure allows you to pursue dental implants and other restorative treatments that might not have been possible otherwise. We are here to support you through every step of the bone grafting process, ensuring you feel confident and cared for throughout your treatment.
