Here at Taylor Brook Dental Associates, we are proud to offer bone grafting for our patients.
Though bone grafting is not as common as it used to be, there are still plenty of reasons to perform the procedure. Anytime that a person loses bone in their jaw, bone grafting may be recommended.
The procedure used to be quite complex, requiring the use of a patient’s own bone. Today, we can easily do the whole procedure in our office since we can use processed bone instead of harvesting your own!
The process of bone grafting involves adding the processed bone structure into your mouth. Your body will eventually recognize the foreign graft as natural bone, so it starts regenerating bone again. It not only helps you directly with bone loss but it also fools your body into regrowing new bone!
If you have any questions about bone grafting or would like to be seen at our office, feel free to contact us today at 207-784-1577.
