One of the biggest restrictions to patients qualifying for dental implants is the lack of bone volume in their jaw. Having adequate bone volume is necessary to securely hold a dental implant post within the jaw, and without the bone support, dental implants will likely fail. Dr. LaKendra Sakeena offers our patients a solution to inadequate bone volume with bone grafting treatments. Bone grafting allows us to restore volume to a jaw to allow you to support dental implants without failure.
Jaw bone loss can occur for a variety of reasons, including trauma to the jaw, gum disease, tooth extractions, or deterioration due to missing teeth. Without restoring the area with bone grafting treatment, you may also experience a shifting of your teeth, an altered bite or an uneven smile. No matter the cause of your bone loss, bone grafting in Missouri City, TX, effectively restores the area and prevents further complications.
