Your type of bone grafting procedure depends on your oral health and the problem that needs correction. Before the procedure begins, your provider takes 3D X-rays to get a comprehensive view of your mouth and jaw to devise a customized treatment plan for you. Your provider uses intravenous (IV) or general anesthesia before your bone graft procedure begins. They then create a small incision in your gum to expose your jawbone for cleaning and add the bone grafting material to repair the bone loss. They may also cover the area with a membrane. Your provider repositions your gum tissue and stitches the incision site. To book a personalized bone grafting consultation at Solomon Family Dentistry, call the nearest office or book online today.
