Our wisdom teeth are not the only ones that can create problems. Some teeth can become impacted or infected due to eruption issues. Dr. Scott Ferguson, DDS may recommend a tooth extraction to help alleviate painful symptoms after other treatments have been exhausted.
Any time a tooth is removed from its socket it begins to resorb and deteriorate almost immediately. This can create a number of issues and difficulties when you return to have your implant placed after the extraction heals. When a tooth socket graft is performed following the removal, it helps to preserve the area from this deterioration.
Successful implant treatment requires a sufficient amount of bone in the jaw. We may recommend a bone graft if your bone is too thin or too soft to support an implant. A graft can help restore deteriorated bone, and give you a second chance at implant treatment!
A sinus lift is designed to increase the bone mass of the jaw to the point where it can support the incoming dental implants. It is not only one of the most common ways to address the issue of bone loss; it is also one of the most common grafting techniques as well.
A ridge augmentation is a treatment which focuses on the area of the roots of the teeth which are covered by the jawbone. When this ridge and the gum tissue surrounding it lose their shape and form, it is highly unlikely that patient would be able to undergo successful dental implant placement.
