Here at Family Dental Rego Park, we want our patients to look and feel their best. Unfortunately, many patients are struggling with periodontal gum disease that causes lack of bone density. This can cause them to miss out on essential treatment options, like implant or implant-supported dentures for missing teeth.
Bone loss can occur from many different things, such as having a missing tooth or severe periodontal disease. We offer bone regenerating procedures, such as bone grafting, to help with bone loss in our patients.
The bone graft is the most common bone regenerating procedure performed by Dr. Binod Verma. It utilizes healthy tissue and bone from other parts of the patient’s body, as well as some synthetic materials. This is inserted into the gums and attached to a nearby tooth, where hopefully it encourages the regeneration of bone.
We also stress the importance of preventing bone loss by brushing twice a day and flossing once a day, visiting us twice a year for check-ups and cleanings, and replacing missing teeth as soon as possible. Call our dental office at 718-699-8268 to learn more.
