Welcome to Central Park Oral Surgery’s Blog!
As part of our commitment to community healthcare education, today we’ll delve into the world of oral surgery to help you understand some effective ways to improve oral health using Bone Grafts and Sinus Lifts.
Understanding Bone Grafts
A bone graft is a surgical procedure designed to fix bones or joints, or to help bone growth around implanted devices like dental implants. If, for some reason, your jawbone isn’t thick enough or is too soft, you might require a bone graft before you can have dental implant surgery. When you lose teeth and don’t replace them, the jawbone deteriorates. Bone grafts can restore your jawbone’s full functionality and appearance.
The Sinus Lift Procedure
Sinus lift is another oral surgery procedure often carried out to prepare for a dental implant. If you have lost bone in the upper jaw, or your sinuses are too close to the jaw, a sinus lift might be necessary. During this procedure, your oral surgeon will add bone to your upper jaw in the area of your molars and premolars. The bone is added between your jaw and the maxillary sinuses, which are on either side of your nose.
How Bone Grafts and Sinus Lifts Advance Oral Health
Both Bone Grafts and Sinus lifts are crucial services offered by Central Park Oral Surgery that can tremendously improve your oral health. Here’s how:
i. Improvement of Jaw Structure
These procedures enhance jaw structure by adding necessary bone mass. This makes your smile more aesthetically pleasing, boosting your confidence, and overall quality of life.
ii. Increased Candidacy for Dental Implants
By building up the bone in your jaw, Bone Grafts and Sinus Lifts can make it possible for people who could not previously have dental implant surgery to now be eligible for this transformative procedure.
iii. Preservation of Facial Features
These procedures help preserve facial features and prevent the onset of premature aging that usually follows jawbone loss.
