What Is A Dental Bone Graft?
A dental bone graft is a specialized treatment used to strengthen the jawbone. Dr. Monika Kaceli at Kaceli Dental Studio may recommend this procedure to prepare your mouth for a dental implant, repair damage caused by gum disease, or restore bone that has diminished following a tooth extraction. A strong and healthy jawbone is essential for dental treatments, like implants, as insufficient bone can impact the implant's stability and healing process. In some cases, bone loss may even affect the facial structure or how your teeth align. Bone grafting after tooth extraction or injury helps prevent these issues, promoting a healthier, more functional smile. Contact our team in Norwood, MA today to schedule a consultation and learn how bone grafting can support your dental needs.
What Is the Bone Grafting Process?
This procedure involves placing a specialized material — often synthetic or donated bone — into the area where additional bone is needed. Over time, the body integrates the material, building strong, new bone in its place. For a bone graft to prepare for a tooth implant, the process begins with cleaning and preparing the site. The grafting material is then positioned and secured with a small membrane or stitches, creating a stable foundation for the implant. The procedure typically takes 1 – 2 hours, depending on the graft size. While mild discomfort is common during recovery, most patients feel normal within a few days. Complete healing takes several months as new bone forms. Throughout this time, Dr. Kaceli will monitor your progress to ensure successful healing.
