Ridge augmentation, offered at Mayfield Ranch Dental, is a specialized oral surgery procedure which restores the natural contour and strength of the jawbone, particularly after tooth loss or other factors that have led to bone resorption.
The Purpose of Ridge Augmentation:
- Restoring Bone Structure: Rebuilds and reshapes the jawbone to its original form.
- Dental Implant Preparation: Creates a stable foundation for dental implant placement.
- Aesthetic Enhancement: Improves the appearance of the smile by maintaining proper bone volume.
The Ridge Augmentation Procedure:
- Initial Assessment: Your oral health is evaluated by Dr. Jai Kolliboyana and Dr. Juhi Hirpara, who determine the need for ridge augmentation.
- Bone Graft Placement: Graft material, either synthetic, donor, or autogenous, is strategically placed along the ridge.
- Healing Process: Over time, your body incorporates the graft material into your natural bone structure, creating a strong foundation.
Benefits of Ridge Augmentation:
- Successful Implants: Ensures dental implants are stable and long-lasting.
- Aesthetic Improvement: Helps maintain facial contours and enhances smile appearance.
- Restored Oral Function: Enables improved chewing and speaking abilities.
