Bone Graft
At Joy Dental Pines, we need to ensure that you have adequate bone strength to support a dental implant before completing the procedure. Numerous problems can cause the bone surrounding the supporting teeth to erode, including the following:
- Bone defects or infection
- Acid erosion
- Cracked teeth
- Extensive cavities
- Bone is too thin or short to support implants
- Untreated periodontal disease
- Missing teeth
- Other medical conditions
- Poorly-fitting dentures
- Bone density weakness
A successful bone graft allows you to generate new bone to provide support for your dental implants.
