You may not realize it, but bone health is one of the most important factors in assessing your overall oral health. Both your lower and upper jaw bones are responsible for keeping your teeth in place. Many factors can disturb the quality and quantity of bone, such as periodontal disease, osteoporosis, infection, and tooth loss. Bone grafting is a safe, effective procedure that can restore bone defects using natural bone mineral. The material is allowed to mineralize and integrate into the existing bone during healing. The newly built up bone will allow dental implants to be placed to restore lost teeth. If you have concerns or issues involving periodontal disease, bone levels, or tooth loss, ask your dentist at Maple Dental Health about bone grafting.
