The Role of Extraction & Bone Grafting
At Milestone Oral Surgery And Implant Center in Mission Viejo, CA, our approach to tooth extraction and bone grafting is designed to prepare your mouth for future dental restorations, such as implants. Tooth extraction is often necessary due to decay, infection, or for orthodontic reasons. Following extraction, bone grafting may be recommended to preserve or augment the jawbone. This procedure is crucial as it prevents bone loss and creates a solid base for implant placement, ensuring the longevity and stability of the implant.
Ideal Candidates for Bone Grafting
Bone grafting is particularly beneficial for patients who have experienced bone loss following an extraction or due to periodontal disease. This procedure is ideal for individuals planning to undergo dental implants but lack sufficient bone density to support the implants. By undergoing bone grafting at our Mission Viejo location, patients can enhance their eligibility for successful dental implants, ensuring a smoother and more effective implant process.
