Bone grafting is a way to strengthen a deteriorating jawbone, which is a natural process when teeth are missing. Without the tooth’s root to stimulate this bone, it resorbs, giving you a sunken or aged appearance in the chin area.
Bone grafting in Lake Oswego also provides a stable underpinning for a dental implant, which is a new tooth root that we cap with a dental crown. Implants protect the jawbone from deterioration.
Materials Used for Bone Grafting
Typically, we use the most natural materials for bone grafting, such as natural bone. Your dentist then uses platelet-rich fibrin, which is a part of your anatomy, to promote healing and bone grafting success. PRF also benefits dental implant placement, extractions, and other specific treatments.
To get started, we have you visit our dental office for a consultation to ensure bone grafting is a viable solution for you.
