What is Bone Grafting?

Bone grafting is a surgical procedure used to rebuild or augment deficient jawbone to create a stable foundation for dental implants. It is essential when bone loss has occurred due to tooth loss, periodontal disease, trauma, or long-term infection.

At Al Bahri Dental & Orthodontic Center, bone grafting is performed using evidence-based regenerative protocols, ensuring predictable bone formation and long-term implant success.

Why is Bone Grafting Needed?

After tooth loss, the alveolar bone begins to resorb. Without adequate bone volume:

Bone grafting restores both function and facial structure.

Grafting Materials Used

Material selection depends on defect type, volume required, and treatment goals.

Types of Bone Grafting Procedures

Socket Preservation (Ridge Preservation)

Performed immediately after tooth extraction to prevent bone collapse

Ridge Augmentation

Rebuilds lost bone width and/or height.

Sinus Lift (Sinus Augmentation)

Increases bone height in the posterior maxilla by elevating the sinus membrane.

Minor Guided Bone Regeneration (GBR)

Uses bone graft material with membranes to regenerate localized defects.

Alternatives to Bone Grafting

Short or narrow implants (limited indications)

Angled implants / All-on-X solutions

Zygomatic implants (for severe maxillary atrophy)

Removable prosthetics (non-surgical option)
