Bone Grafting
Importance Of Bone Grafting
Bone grafts are surgical procedures used to reshape and reform parts of the jawbone which have been damaged or simply have degenerated from past conditions, such as tooth loss, gum disease or injury. If teeth are lost, the bone that held them in place starts to erode, which can make it difficult to successfully place dental implants and can negatively affect the shape of your face. Bone grafts bring this foundation back, so that long-term oral health and function are maintained.
Standard Indications for Bone Grafting
Tooth Removal
When teeth are lost, the bone in the area that once held the teeth is no longer stimulated and begins to lose volume and density over time.
Periodontal disease
This more advanced form of gum disease can cause the supporting bone to erode around the teeth.
Dental Trauma
Blows that damage the mouth or jaw can cause bone loss.
Developmental
Certain diseases can result in malformation of the bone in the jaw.

Bone Grafting
Our Method of Bone Grafting in Englewood, NJ
At Englewood Oral Surgery we provide several types of bone grafting procedures according to the patient’s needs:
Socket Preservation: This procedure is done at the time of tooth removal, where grafting material is placed into the empty socket to prevent bone loss and to allow space for an implant in the future.
Ridge Augmentation : This process replaces natural jawbone that has been lost through tooth extraction or injury, and can provide the bone needed to support implants.
Sinus Lift : We design a custom treatment plan to suit you personally.For patients with insufficient bone height in the upper jaw, particularly toward the back of the jaw, a sinus lift can raise the sinus floor and create bone height to place an implant.
Autogenous Bone Grafting : For cases that must be integrated with a significant amount of bone, we can obtain bone from another part of the patient's body, such as the chin or hip, and implant it into the jaw.
Test Will Show
What the Test Will Show
Consultation and Imaging: Our process begins with a comprehensive consultation and examination with any necessary X-rays or CT scans to evaluate bone loss and to determine an accurate treatment plan for your specific situation.
Anaesthesia: The region becomes anesthetized with local anesthesia, or if desired sedation is an option.
Bone grafting: Solace material is inserted into the defect, and membranes can be utilized to shield the graft and aid healing.
Recovery Process: During the healing period that follows, the graft becomes part of the existing bone and provides a solid base for dental implants.
Aftercare
Recovery and Aftercare
Postoperative care is very important in the successful healing:
Drugs: Pain medications and antibiotics can help ease discomfort and prevent infection.
Diet : After the operation, stick to a soft food diet for initial healing.
Oral Hygiene: Keeping the operation area clean is extremely important; we will give you clear and concise instructions.
Follow Up Visits : For cases that must be integrated with a significant amount of bone, we can obtain bone from another part of the patient's body, such as the chin or hip, and implant it into the jaw.

FAQ's
Bone Grafting FAQ from the Professionals at Englewood Oral Surgery
What is bone grafting?
Bone grafting Bone grafting is a surgery which can help regenerate or add to bone in the jaw. It is frequently used to regenerate parts of the bone that have been lost due to tooth loss, trauma, gum disease, or other conditions. The process provides solid support for dental implants or other restorations.
Why might I need a bone graft?
If you have lost a tooth, or have lost a lot of bone in your jaw — will you still have enough bone to hold an implant in place? A bone graft will add back the volume and density to the jawbone, making you a better candidate for implants, and can even save your facial structure.
What are bone graft materials?
Englewood Oral Surgery chooses the type of graft material works best for you. These can be your own bone (autograft), donor bone (allograft), animal bone (xenograft), or synthetic substances. Your doctor will tell you which procedure is best for you.
Is bone grafting painful?
The majority of patients have a feeling of mild discomfort. It is carried out under local anaesthetic or conscious sedation to keep you comfortable. Following, some swelling and tenderness are to be expected and can be treated with materials like aspirin.
What is the recovery period and how long does it take?
First stage healing is a mere one to two weeks, with the grafted tissue fully integrated within a couple of months. You will receive personalized instructions to aid in your recovery process and we will track your progress with follow-up visits.
Can I get a dental implant immediately following a bone graft?
In some cases, yes. But, the majority of patients need a time to heal before implants can be placed, since the graft needs a few months to integrate with the natural bone.
