Bone Grafting in Hawthorne, CA

What Is Bone Grafting?

Bone grafting is a surgical technique where new bone material is placed in areas of the jaw that have thinned or deteriorated. This graft stimulates natural bone growth and provides the stability needed for restorative treatments.

Reasons patients may need bone grafting include:

• Tooth loss leading to jawbone shrinkage
• Periodontal (gum) disease damaging bone structure
• Trauma or injury to the jaw
• Long-term denture use causing resorption
• Preparing the mouth for ridge augmentation or full arch solutions

Types of Bone Grafting Procedures

At our practice, bone grafting treatments are fully customized. Options may include:

1. Socket Preservation – Performed after a tooth extraction to protect the empty socket and maintain bone structure.
2. Sinus Lift – Adds bone to the upper jaw near the molars and premolars, creating space for implants.
3. Block Grafting – Uses a section of bone to rebuild larger areas of the jaw.
4. Guided Bone Regeneration – Involves specialized membranes that encourage natural bone healing and growth.

Benefits of Bone Grafting

Bone grafting is more than preparation for implants—it protects your long-term oral health. Advantages include:

• Restoring lost facial structure and preventing sagging
• Providing a stable foundation for implant-supported dentures and other implant restorations
• Preventing further bone loss after extractions
• Enhancing the success and longevity of dental implants
• Improving overall bite function and smile aesthetics
