Bone Grafting in Phoenix, AZ

Dental bone grafting is a surgical procedure that involves adding bone or bone-like materials to the jawbone. This procedure is often necessary when there isn't enough bone to support dental implants or other restorative treatments.

When is Dental Bone Grafting Necessary?

• Dental Implants: If the jawbone is too thin or weak to securely hold dental implants, bone grafting can help build up the bone to a sufficient density.
• Periodontal Disease: Severe periodontal disease can lead to bone loss around the teeth. Bone grafting can help restore the lost bone and support the remaining teeth.
• Jaw Trauma or Defects: Accidents or congenital conditions can result in jawbone defects. Bone grafting can help repair these defects and improve facial aesthetics.
