Bone grafting

Bone grafting can repair implant sites with inadequate bone structure due to previous extractions, gum disease, or injuries.

Bone grafting is a dental procedure that involves transplanting bone tissue to support new bone growth. This procedure is commonly used in dentistry to prepare a patient’s jawbone for dental implants, or to repair bone loss caused by gum disease or injury.

Why is bone grafting needed for dental implants?

Bone grafting is often necessary to create a solid foundation for dental implants. Without enough bone density in the jaw, the implant may not be secure and may fail over time.

Is bone grafting painful?

Bone grafting is typically performed under local anesthesia, so the patient does not feel any pain during the procedure. Some discomfort and swelling may occur after the procedure, but this can usually be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers.

How long does it take to recover from bone grafting?

The recovery time after bone grafting can vary depending on the extent of the procedure and the patient’s overall health. In general, patients can expect to experience some discomfort and swelling for a few days after the procedure, but most can return to normal activities within a week or two.
