Restore Your Jaw's Natural Shape
Ridge augmentation rebuilds the natural contour of your jaw after bone loss, improving both function and aesthetics while preparing the site for dental implants.
After a tooth is lost or extracted, the jawbone ridge can deteriorate over time, losing both height and width. This creates an indentation in the jawline that can affect your appearance and make it difficult to place dental implants or properly fit bridges and dentures.
Ridge augmentation rebuilds the bone to its original dimensions, restoring the natural contour of your jaw and creating a stable foundation for future restorations.
During the procedure, the gum tissue is gently lifted away from the ridge to expose the bone defect. Bone graft material is placed to fill the void and rebuild the ridge. The area is then covered and allowed to heal over several months as the new bone integrates with your natural bone structure.
Once healing is complete, the ridge will be restored to a functional dimension that can support dental implants or other restorations.
