What Is Bone Grafting?

Bone grafting is an essential dental technique used to build up or repair bone in the jaw where it is insufficient, to ensure the long-term stability and success of dental implants. It involves adding bone material to the existing jawbone, which over time integrates with the natural bone, creating a solid foundation for dental implants.

Signs You Need Bone Grafting

Bone grafting may be necessary to ensure the success of dental implants and overall oral health. A few factors indicating you might need this procedure include:

Insufficient Bone Density: If your jawbone lacks the necessary density to support a dental implant.

Bone Loss from Periodontal Disease: Significant bone deterioration due to advanced gum disease can affect implant stability.

Jawbone Atrophy from Tooth Loss: Bone loss in the jaw following prolonged tooth loss can complicate implant placement.

What to Expect During the Procedure

During a bone grafting procedure, your dentist makes a small gum incision to access the jawbone and adds graft material from the patient, a donor, or synthetic sources. This material integrates with existing bone, promoting new growth and stability. This procedure is crucial for patients with insufficient bone density, ensuring successful dental implants.

Dr. Vanessa Mancuso performed oral surgery and implant bone grafts for dental implant retention. She is superior in her field of periodontics. The surgery was painless, and she demonstrated a gentle, kind, and lighthearted demeanor throughout the process. I highly recommend her services.

I recently had oral surgery performed by Dr. V. Mancuso. I received excellent care, with three follow-up visits by Dr. Mancuso. She always guided me on what to do to ensure the healing of the wound would be effective. At this time, everything is perfect, and I got my teeth back. I salute Dr. Mancuso.

I want to compliment Dr. Vanessa Mancuso on the excellent work she performed on my recent gum operation. I am very grateful to her that the operation was successful. The after-operation care I received from Dr. Vanessa Mancuso was very professional, and the healing process has been smooth.

More About Bone Grafting

Dental Bone Graft Cost

Understanding the cost of a dental bone graft is essential for planning your dental treatments. The cost of a dental bone graft can vary widely depending on factors such as the type of graft material used, the complexity of the procedure, and the location of the graft. At Oasis Perio, we offer detailed consultations to provide you with an accurate cost estimate based on your specific needs and ensure you understand the benefits and requirements of the procedure.


Benefits of Dental Bone Grafting

Dental bone grafting is a critical procedure for patients who have experienced bone loss due to periodontal disease, injury, or long-term tooth loss. The benefits include restoring bone structure, supporting dental implants, and improving overall oral health. Bone grafting can also enhance the aesthetic appearance of your smile by providing a strong foundation for future dental work.


Dental Bone Grafting Healing Stages

The healing process after a dental bone graft occurs in several stages. Initially, you may experience some swelling and discomfort, which can be managed with prescribed medications. Within the first week, the graft site will begin to stabilize as the initial healing takes place. Over the next few months, the bone graft will integrate with your natural bone, providing a solid foundation. Complete healing and integration typically take three to six months. At Oasis Perio, we provide thorough post-operative care instructions and follow-up appointments to ensure optimal healing and success of the graft.


When Can I Use Mouthwash After a Bone Graft?

After a dental bone graft, it's important to follow your periodontist's instructions to ensure proper healing. Generally, it is advised to avoid using mouthwash for at least the first 24 hours after the procedure. Instead, rinse your mouth gently with a saline solution to keep the area clean. After the initial period, you can begin using a non-alcoholic, antiseptic mouthwash as recommended by your periodontist.


Choosing the Right Dental Practice for Bone Grafting

Selecting the right dental practice for your bone grafting procedure is crucial for achieving successful results. Look for a practice with experienced professionals who use the latest technology and techniques. Additionally, consider the practice's reputation and patient reviews to ensure a high standard of care.
