What Is Bone Grafting?

Bone grafting is a surgical procedure that involves transplanting bone tissue to areas of the jaw where it is needed. It is commonly used to:

  • Promote Bone Regeneration: Bone grafts stimulate the growth of new bone tissue in areas affected by bone loss due to periodontal disease, trauma, or tooth extraction.
  • Enhance Dental Implant Placement: Bone grafting creates a solid foundation for dental implants, ensuring stability and long-term success.

Why Bone and Soft Tissue Grafting Is Important

Dental implants have revolutionized the field of restorative dentistry, offering a permanent solution for replacing missing teeth. However, the implants’ success is closely tied to the quality and quantity of available bone and surrounding soft tissue in the treatment area. Bone and soft tissue grafting play a pivotal role in ensuring the long-term success and aesthetics of dental implants.

A study conducted by the American Academy of Periodontology reveals that bone grafting significantly increases the success rate of dental implant placement, providing a stable foundation for the implant to integrate with the bone tissue. This integration, known as osseointegration, is crucial for the implant’s long-term stability.

Bone grafting procedures can augment areas with bone deficiency, allowing for the secure placement of dental implants and reducing the risk of implant failure.

What our Patients Say About Us

I have been dealing with ongoing off and on problems with my mandible since 2015. Dr. Vega is the one who saved my life, debrided it correctly, put me on IV ABT, wired my jaw so it wouldn’t break and placed 2 successful implants all with genuine care, great bedside manner and professionalism. I had to return to him d/t another unfortunate event and he has stuck with me through thick and thin. He is an excellent physician, he does everything he can to set you up for success, but sometimes it’s our bodies that don’t cooperate. I highly recommend him!

He included me in developing the plan of care and answered all of my questions. He explained every aspect in a way I could understand, using models and pictures for clarity. His pleasant, approachable & caring attitude offered me the opportunity to ask questions, eliminating fears & anxiety. I highly recommend Dr. Vega and his team.
