Bone Grafting
Bone grafting restores lost or insufficient bone in the jaw, which may be necessary due to tooth loss, periodontal disease, or injury. At Ryerson Smile Boutique, we offer bone grafting as part of a comprehensive implant treatment plan, using advanced grafting materials to stimulate natural bone growth and create the strong foundation your implants need to last a lifetime.
What is it?
Bone grafting is a surgical procedure that rebuilds lost or insufficient jawbone using biocompatible grafting material, creating the foundation necessary for dental implants or other restorations.
How it works?
The graft material is placed at the deficient bone site, where it stimulates the body's natural bone-growth response over a healing period of several months. The site is then ready for implant placement.
How it helps?
Bone grafting enables patients who would otherwise lack sufficient bone to receive dental implants, preventing further bone loss and maintaining healthy jaw structure long-term.
COMMON QUESTIONS
Frequently asked questions
Who might consider this treatment?
Patients who have lost bone volume due to tooth loss or gum disease and need it rebuilt before implant placement.
What is the typical experience?
Grafting material is placed at the target site under local anesthesia. Stitches are placed to protect the area.
How long does it usually take?
The procedure is relatively quick, but bone maturation takes 3–6 months before the next treatment step.
Is there anything to keep in mind?
Smoking and a poor diet significantly affect healing. Antibiotics and pain relief are prescribed.
What should I know about recovery after?
Mild swelling and tenderness for the first week is normal. Most patients resume daily activities within a few days.
