Ridge Augmentation or Grafting
is a procedure that can recapture the natural contour of the gums and jaw.
Our dentist
can correct this defect with ridge augmentation,
making your smile look natural again.
Sometimes when you lose one or more teeth,
you can get an indention in your gums and jawbone where the tooth used to be.
This happens because the jawbone recedes when it no longer is holding a
tooth in place, the jawbone recedes and the resulting indentation looks unnatural
Ridge Augmentation or grafting, is a procedure to increase the
volume of the bone for implant or complete denture retention. Alveolar bone is
lost over time for many reasons, including wearing of complete dentures.
Edentulous Ridge Augmentation is then needed to increase the vertical height of
bone for implant or complete denture retention. Complete denture stability is
directly related to vertical height of bone.
