Rebuild Your Smile: Solutions for Oral Bone Loss
Bone deterioration caused by severe gum disease or infection used to mean the loss of permanent teeth and normal function. Now, thanks to bone grafting technology and skillful dentists like ours at Mountain Top Periodontics & Implants, patients can restore lost bone support and improve their quality of life.
Bone grafting has many benefits:
- Preventing tooth loss: A loose tooth could be made more stable with a minor bone grafting procedure.
- Preventing bone resorption: After tooth extraction, your dentist places a bone graft in the extraction site to prevent bone loss in the future.
- Strengthening dental implants: When replacing lost teeth with dental implants, a bone graft may be necessary for support where bone loss has occurred.
We’ll do a thorough evaluation to determine if bone grafting is the right plan for you. Call Mountain Top Periodontics & Implants to make an appointment.

Guided Tissue Regeneration
Do you fear loss of teeth because of severely diseased gums? You don’t have to! Thanks to guided tissue bone regeneration, patients can restore lost bone and oral function and improve their quality of life.
At Mountain Top Periodontics & Implants, we use simple and fast techniques to regrow lost bone and provide support for dental implants. That means, in just a few months’ time, you can have new bone that’s ready for the placement of your implants.
HOW IT WORKS
Guided tissue bone regeneration helps the body to restore lost bone by repairing the damage done by periodontal disease. It means that you’ll not only be able to replace missing teeth but also increase the chances of keeping your natural teeth!
Thankfully, in many cases, we don’t have to remove bone from another part of your body. Our skilled team at Mountain Top Periodontics & Implants offers many options for your bone regrowth including membrane barriers, tissue stimulating proteins, and bioactive growth factor gels.
Occasionally, bone grafting procedures are required. When that’s the case, bone grafts can be from your own bone, tissue banks, or synthetic materials. The goal of each of these treatment options is to stimulate the body to grow new bone or to hold the space for the bone to regenerate.
