Bone Grafting & Sinus Lift in Sacramento, CA
A strong jawbone is essential for a healthy, functional smile—especially when considering dental implants. At East Sac Dental, we offer advanced bone grafting and sinus lift procedures to rebuild and strengthen your jawbone, making it possible for patients with bone loss to receive implants and restore their smiles with confidence.
Why Bone Grafting and Sinus Lifts Are Important
Bone loss in the jaw can result from various factors, including:
- Tooth Loss: Missing teeth lead to bone resorption over time.
- Periodontal Disease: Gum disease can cause significant bone deterioration.
- Injury or Trauma: Accidents can damage the jawbone.
- Natural Aging: Bone density decreases with age, affecting implant candidacy.
Without sufficient bone, dental implants may not be stable. Bone grafting and sinus lifts enhance bone volume and density, creating a solid foundation for implants.
Bone Grafting: Rebuilding Your Jaw for Implants
Bone grafting involves placing graft material in areas of bone deficiency to stimulate new bone growth. This procedure is often necessary before implant placement to ensure a strong, stable base.
Types of Bone Grafting
- Autografts: Bone taken from another part of your body, such as the jaw or hip.
- Allografts: Donor bone material from a biocompatible source.
- Xenografts: Bone material from animal sources, often bovine.
- Synthetic Grafts: Lab-made materials that mimic natural bone.
Our skilled team will determine the best grafting method based on your specific needs, ensuring optimal results.
Sinus Lift: Expanding Your Upper Jawbone
When bone loss occurs in the upper jaw, particularly near the molars and premolars, a sinus lift may be necessary. This procedure raises the sinus floor and adds bone to the area, allowing for successful implant placement.
When Is a Sinus Lift Needed?
- Insufficient bone height in the upper jaw
- Enlarged sinuses due to natural aging or tooth loss
- Preparing for dental implants in the upper molar or premolar region
