Bone Graft
Dental implants are a great way to replace missing teeth. However, they cannot be placed in all circumstances. One person must have sufficient mass and volume in the bone that receives them. Otherwise, they will not fit well into the jawbone. In that case, It is possible to ensure the success of the implantation by first performing a bone graft. Your Ottawa general dentist offers this surgery at General Dentist Solutions.
When is bone grafting necessary?
What are the reasons for bone loss?
- Age: with time, cell regeneration slows down. The effects of wear and tear are greater as we age;

- Periodontal disease: the bacteria that cause it can attack the bone and cause serious

What are the stages of bone grafting in Ottawa?
- If it is an autograft, a piece of bone is first removed;
- The dentist makes an incision in the area to be treated, attaches the graft (artificial or natural) and then covers it with a synthetic membrane. The latter has the function of holding it in place and isolating it in order to stimulate bone growth;
- During the healing period, the operated site heals and the graft integrates into the jaw. The jaw bone then regains its mass and volume.
Bone grafting: to ensure the success of dental implants
