Strengthen Your Jaw With Atlanta Bone Grafts

Most of us take our jawbone for granted. But you can’t have a healthy smile without a healthy jaw since it keeps your teeth in place. If you’ve lost bone in your jaw following tooth loss or for another reason, let our dentists repair it with bone grafts in Atlanta.

A bone graft procedure on your jaw will:

  • Strengthen the bone so it’s easier for you to get dental implants
  • Help keep your face looking fuller and younger
  • May enable you to keep teeth threatened by gum disease
  • Keep your bone from shrinking following a tooth extraction

Call us at 770-802-1120 to schedule an appointment. Our dentists will examine you using technology like a CT scan to determine if you’d benefit from bone grafting.

Grafting Is a Simple Dental Surgery

We may recommend a bone graft if:

  • You want to receive implants but your bone isn’t strong enough to support them
  • You want to avoid the bone loss that can occur after a tooth is removed
  • Your bone is weakened enough by gum disease that you’re at risk of losing teeth

During a grafting procedure, our dentists simply create a small opening in your gums and insert material that encourages new bone growth. They will usually cover the material with a membrane to ensure it stays in place. While the process can typically be completed in about an hour, it may take several months to gain enough new bone for implants.

Choose Your Implant Procedure After a Bone Graft

Once your bone is strong enough for implants, you can choose the appropriate implant procedure:

  • Single-Crown Implant – To replace one tooth, we can restore a single implant with a single crown. The results will be so natural, no one will realize you had a missing tooth.
  • Implant-Supported Dental Bridge – You can avoid drilling into healthy teeth when we attach a dental bridge to two or more implants.
  • Implant Dentures – You’ll avoid most of the downsides of conventional dentures, such as teeth that become dislodged, with dental implant dentures.

For bone grafts in Atlanta, call 770-802-1120.

Common Questions About Bone Grafts

Are bone grafts necessary?

There are many cases where bone grafts are necessary. The most common reason we suggest a bone graft is if you have a thin bone but would like to have a dental implant placed. We can sometimes recommend this as soon as your tooth is extracted to prevent as much bone loss as possible. Bone grafts can also help prevent tooth loss due to gum disease.

Do bone grafts hurt?

A bone graft is a form of oral surgery. As with any oral surgery, there will be discomfort following the procedure. Most of our patients opt for sedation during their bone graft so that they can relax and maybe even sleep while we work. The jaw itself will be completely numb, so you won’t feel a thing during surgery, and we will make sure you have the medication you need to stay pain-free once you are home.

How do bone grafts work?

A bone graft is basically filling in or building up around a thin or weak jawbone. A bone graft can be used to fill space left after an extraction, or we can use it to boost the strength of a jawbone that is battling an infection brought on by gum disease. The dentist will simply place material along your bone that will encourage new bone growth. While the procedure itself is quick, it will take several months for your bone to respond and heal.
