How Do I Know: Which Type Of Bone Grafting Do I Need?

When you know that your jaw is not prepared for dental implants or you are simply in need of care for damage, you are likely overjoyed to learn that bone grafting can help. You also know that this is a way of repairing the damage, so you have jaw tissue that is full, strong, and healthy once more. What you may be confused about, though, is how to figure out what type of grafting you need. Let’s head through some basic details, so you begin to see the future of your experience much more clearly.

How Do I Know What I Need?

When it comes to the type of bone grafting you need, you will not be expected to research this clinical topic on your own, matching up the cause of your bone loss to the unique type of care that you require. Instead, what you will need to do is to come in for a consultation with us. After examining your smile, we can talk with you about the extent of your damage and the best way to move forward with grafting, so it offers optimal benefits. Remember that a variety of procedures can help you and often depend on many factors (like location, implant plans, and more).

What’s The Graft Made Of?

This is a very common question when it comes to bone grafting. Keep in mind that during your consultation and visits with us, we will guide you through the many options available. One option is grafting your own tissue that is removed from your body. Another is animal-based bone tissue. Or, you may be a candidate for synthetic bone tissue. There are also products that may encourage your jaw tissue to grow. To discuss the details, your preferences, your choices, and to arrive at a conclusion regarding which is right for you, come in for a visit with us to get started.
