Bone deterioration in the jaw is one of the most serious consequences of missing teeth. Gradual bone loss may affect your oral health in many ways, including limiting your choices for tooth replacement. Losing teeth and bone can also change the overall appearance of your face.
Today, we have the ability to help you grow bone where needed. Bone grafting gives the dental experts at Dental Care of Texas the ability to place implants for tooth replacement, giving us the opportunity to restore your mouth's functionality and appearance.
Bone grafting is a safe procedure in which we build up or add bone to the jaw by using your bone or synthetic materials. Once the graft has fused and become strong, dental implants can be placed in order to support replacement teeth.
The dental experts at our office use oral sedation, local anesthesia and laughing gas for comfort. Excellent patient care is our top priority -- that's why we offer convenient evening and weekend appointments. To learn more about the approaches we use for bone grafting, please call the office nearest you today.
