At Innovative Dental Solutions of Seminole, we understand that tooth loss can lead to jawbone deterioration. Our specialized bone grafting procedure, offered by Dr. Martino, aims to restore lost bone tissue. This creates a strong foundation for dental implants and helps maintain your facial structure for optimal oral health.

Restore Your Jawbone Foundation with Advanced Bone Grafting

Bone grafting provides essential benefits for patients experiencing bone loss due to tooth extraction, gum disease, or trauma. This procedure uses biocompatible materials to stimulate natural bone regeneration, creating adequate bone volume for successful dental implant placement. The treatment preserves facial contours, prevents further bone deterioration, and ensures long-term stability for replacement teeth. Patients benefit from improved chewing function, enhanced facial support, and the ability to receive dental implants that would otherwise be impossible without sufficient bone structure.

Understanding the Bone Grafting Process

During bone grafting, Dr. Martino carefully places bone graft material into areas where bone loss has occurred. The graft material can be sourced from your own body, donor tissue, or synthetic materials, depending on your specific needs. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia for your comfort, and the graft material serves as a scaffold for your natural bone to grow around. Over several months, your body incorporates the graft material, creating new, healthy bone tissue that provides a solid foundation for dental implants or other restorative treatments.
