Who Benefits Most From Bone Grafting
Posted on 5/22/2023 by Bryan Neu
Your jawbone, just like your teeth, can succumb to periodontal disease, accidents, and facial injuries. You can lose your jawbone due to developmental defects or tooth extraction. For those planning to have dental implants and implant-supported dentures, having a sufficiently healthy jawbone is prudent. When a dentist realizes you have bone loss or a weak jawbone they may recommend a dental bone grafting procedure before administering any further treatment like implant placement. What is Bone Grafting? Doctors define bone grafting as the practice of introducing new bone material to the existing bone material to help supplement it. In dentistry, this procedure is referred to as dental bone grafting. In this surgical procedure, a dentist repairs the weak or missing jawbone mass by transplanting a healthy bone material harvested from another bone inside the patient's body or at times gotten from a third-party human tissue bank. Who Benefits from Bone Grafts? Every day you live with a missing tooth, you gradually lose jawbone mass. If you stay for too long before getting a dental implant to fill an empty socket on your jaw, you will have to undergo a dental bone grafting procedure to replace the bone loss. The longer you wait the more bone material you will need. Once your dentist is through with the procedure, you will have to wait until the healing process is finished before you can get your dental implants. People with insufficient bone mass or those who lose their bone after tooth loss are the most beneficiaries of the bone grafting procedure.

The procedure also gives support to dental restorations like bridges, crowns, dentures, and implants. It creates a stronger, more stable, and robust foundation for implant support. Additionally, the procedure prevents further bone loss and damage by preserving the existing bone and encouraging more bone growth.
