At Allegra Dental in Tustin, CA, we specialize in advanced bone grafting techniques essential for dental implant success. Our experienced team, led by Dr. Kashif Ahmed, utilizes state-of-the-art technology to ensure optimal outcomes for our patients.
Understanding Bone Grafting
Bone grafting is a critical procedure aimed at repairing implant sites with inadequate bone structure due to previous extractions, gum disease, or injuries. The essence of bone grafting is to provide a solid foundation for future dental implants, enhancing both functionality and aesthetic appearance.
Why Is Bone Grafting Necessary?
- Implant Support: Creates the necessary bone density and volume for implant placement.
- Facial Contour Preservation: Prevents facial sagging that can occur with bone loss.
- Improved Dental Functionality: Ensures the longevity and functionality of dental implants.
Types of Bone Grafts
- Autografts: Bone taken from the patient’s body, offering excellent integration and success rates.
- Allografts: Processed bone from a human donor, used effectively in various grafting procedures.
- Xenografts: Bone derived from animal sources, specially treated to ensure safety and compatibility.
- Synthetic Grafts: Biocompatible artificial materials that stimulate bone growth.
Our Bone Grafting Procedure
The procedure begins with a detailed assessment using advanced imaging techniques to determine the precise needs for your bone graft.
