Our bones are the supportive system of the body
without them, our bodies would simply crumble
into a lifeless sack. The bone around our teeth,
for example, is known as the alveolar bone and it
holds our teeth in place. This bone structure is
necessary to protect and support our teeth and
theyre also necessary if you seek restorative
dentistry procedures like dental implants.

Bone Graft for Dental Implant
Bone grafting procedure is a method by which the
dentist can facilitate bone regeneration. During
the procedure, the dentist uses bone grafting
material from sources like other animals, other
people, other parts of your body, or even
synthetic sources. The bone grafting material is
then planted into the alveolar bone region to
stimulate bone regeneration. Over a few months,
your bones will naturally grow and replace the
bone grafting material so you can get your dental
implants.

Bone Graft Procedure

• The dentist conducts an oral examination to take
  x-rays of your teeth and examine your jawbone to
  determine how much bone loss youre suffering.
• The dentist will discuss your options in terms of
  types of bone grafts. You can get bone grafts
  from another part of your own body, from other
  individuals, from animals like cows, or synthetic
  bone grafts. The dentist Katy Tx will give you an
  overview of these options along with the
  associated costs so you can make an informed
  decision.
• The exact steps involved in the bone graft
  procedure differ based on the type of bone graft
  material, location of bone graft, etc. But the
  dentist will cut into the gum tissues of the
  affected region and plant the bone graft material
  in the right place. Following that, the dentist
  will suture up the wound.
• The dentist may also use collagen or other
  materials to help with the regeneration. You may
  have to go for repeat sessions as well and your
  bones will naturally regenerate over a few months.
