Bone graft for dental implant is a surgical procedure that replaces missing bone. Procedure is extremely complex, poses a significant health risk to the patient. Autogenous bone graft is the preferred technique as there is less risk of the graft rejection because the graft originated from the patient’s own body.  Dr. Navid Rahmani is an internationally recognized, Board Certified Periodontist and Dental Implant Specialist. All procedures are performed in our NYC Dental Implants Center. 

Depending on the site of the bone loss and your individual needs, Dr. Rahmani, a top implant dentist in New York will use one of several different techniques to help replace the missing bone.

Socket Preservation

When it is necessary to remove a tooth, it is possible that the socket that used to hold the tooth will have become damaged by disease or infection. Additionally, tooth removal can result in changes to the surrounding bone and gums.

Bone loss and gum recession can occur very soon after extraction, creating substantial problems for subsequent restorative dental implant procedures in NYC.

Socket preservation technique that can help enhance the appearance of your new dental implant and which will improve your chances of enjoying successful dental implant treatment for many years to come.

One popular socket preservation technique is to fill the empty socket with bone grafting material or artificial bone grafting material. Afterwards the bone grafting material may be covered up with an artificial membrane containing special proteins to help stimulate your body to repair the empty socket and to prevent the gum tissue from growing into the bone. The artificial membrane is then covered up with gum to protect it.

Strong and Stable Foundation for a Dental Implant

This method can be enormously successful helping to eliminate the shrinkage and collapse of bone and gum tissue, and the newly formed bone in the empty socket provides a strong and stable foundation for a dental implant.

Socket preservation can be particularly useful when replacing front teeth with either dental implants or mini dental implants (small diameter implants).
