If you’ve experienced jawbone loss due to missing teeth, gum disease, or trauma, a bone graft can help restore lost bone structure and create a strong foundation for dental implants or other restorations. At Stamford Green Dental, we offer safe and effective bone grafting procedures to rebuild and strengthen your jawbone, ensuring the long-term health and stability of your smile.
A bone graft is a procedure that adds natural or synthetic bone material to areas of the jaw that have lost bone density. Over time, this material integrates with your existing bone, promoting new bone growth and creating a solid foundation for future dental treatments.
You may need a bone graft if you have:
✅ Bone loss from missing teeth – Prevents further deterioration and prepares for dental implants.
✅ Jawbone thinning due to gum disease – Restores support for teeth and surrounding structures.
✅ Tooth extraction sites – Preserves bone structure after tooth removal.
✅ Facial trauma or injury – Rebuilds lost or damaged bone.
✅ Sinus lift requirements – Increases bone in the upper jaw for implant placement.
🔹 Socket Preservation Graft – Placed immediately after a tooth extraction to prevent bone loss.
🔹 Ridge Augmentation Graft – Restores jawbone volume and width after significant bone loss.
🔹 Sinus Lift Graft – Increases bone in the upper jaw near the sinuses for implant placement.
🔹 Periodontal Bone Graft – Repairs bone lost due to gum disease, strengthening tooth support.

3️⃣ Healing & Integration – Over the next few months, the new bone fuses with your jawbone.
4️⃣ Preparation for Dental Implants (If Needed) – Once healed, your jaw is ready for implant placement or other restorative treatments.
