Bone Regeneration
|
| • | Missing Teeth: The jawbone needs continuous stimulus through biting and chewing to become stronger and grow. When a tooth is lost, that part of the jawbone is not stimulated enough and becomes reabsorbed by the body. |
| • | Periodontitis: Periodontitis is an advanced and chronic form of gum disease, which leads to severe destruction of the soft and hard tissues that support your teeth. If this bacterial infection is allowed to progress unchecked, it can result in the deterioration of the jawbone. |
| • | Dental Trauma: A trauma to the mouth can result in fractured or loose tooth or can cause damage to your jaw. All these things can result in infection and inflammation, which can destroy the bone in the jaw. |
| • | Oral Infection: Any kind of oral infection from a virus, bacteria, and tumor can spread to the jawbone and damage the hard tissues. |
| • | Increase dental support: If bone loss is not treated, it can lead to the loss of further teeth. Hence, bone regeneration therapy can help increase the support to your teeth. |
| • | Preserve bone structure: Bone grafting is also used as a preventive measure after a tooth is extracted. By adding bone grafting material to the empty tooth socket, we can help preserve the integrity of your jaw. |
| • | Improve Facial Appearance: When your jaw deteriorates, your face will lose its firmness, your cheeks will sag, and your mouth will pucker inwards. Hence, your face will lose its pleasing appearance. Bone regeneration can prevent your face from collapsing. |
| • | Support Dental Implants: Dental implants are used to replace your missing teeth. However, this surgery can fail if your jaw does not have high bone density. Hence, we recommend getting a bone regeneration therapy so that your jaw is strong enough to support the implant. |
