Guided Bone and Tissue Regeneration
Your Periodontist may recommend a regenerative procedure when the bone supporting your teeth has been destroyed due to periodontal disease. These procedures can reverse some of the damage by regenerating lost bone and tissue.
During this procedure, Dr. Eslami at Powell Oral Surgery and Periodontics folds back the gum tissue and removes the disease-causing bacteria. Membranes (filters), bone grafts or tissue-stimulating proteins can be used to encourage your body's natural ability to regenerate bone and tissue. Eliminating existing bacteria and regenerating bone and tissue helps to reduce pocket depth and repair damage caused by the progression of periodontal disease. With a combination of daily oral hygiene and professional maintenance care, you'll increase the chances of keeping your natural teeth – and decrease the chances of other health problems associated with periodontal disease.
Bone grafting can be a simple procedure and may not necessarily involve taking days off your regular activities.We can use "bone in a bottle" procedure to do bone grafting for dental implants. The bone is prepared from other sources and used to get the patients' own bone to grow into the repair site. It is very effective and very safe. Sometimes synthetic materials can be used to stimulate bone formation and sometimes we even use factors from your own blood to accelerate and promote bone formation in graft areas.
Major bone grafts are typically performed to repair defects of the jaws in preparation of placement of multiple dental implants or prosthetics. These defects may arise as a result of traumatic injuries, tumor surgery, or congenital imperfections. Large defects are repaired using the patient’s own bone. These procedures are routinely performed in an operating room or surgery centers and may require a short hospital stay. These major bone harvesting and grafting procedures if needed are performed by our board certified oral and maxillofacial surgeon.
