Dental grafting can refer to procedures that rebuild bone or soft tissue around the teeth and jaws. At Richmond Dental Centre, grafting procedures including bone augmentation, free gingival grafts and connective tissue grafts are available as part of our surgical dentistry services.

What Are Dental Grafts?

Dental grafting may involve bone grafting, where graft material is placed in an area with insufficient or damaged bone to support healing and future restorative treatment. Soft-tissue grafting procedures may also be used to address gum recession and other periodontal concerns.

Benefits of Grafts

  • Rebuild selected areas of lost or damaged supporting tissue
  • Prepare some sites for future dental implant treatment
  • Address bone loss associated with tooth loss or gum disease
  • Support treatment after selected injuries or structural changes
  • Provide bone-grafting and soft-tissue-grafting options based on the area being treated

What to Expect With Dental Grafting

The steps vary significantly depending on whether the treatment involves bone, gum tissue, or another grafting approach.

Assessment: Your dentist evaluates the area and determines what type of tissue support is needed.

Treatment Planning: The grafting approach is chosen according to the location, amount of tissue loss, and treatment planned afterward.

Graft Placement: The graft material or tissue is positioned in the treatment area and secured.

Healing: The site is protected while the graft integrates and the surrounding tissues heal.

Re-Evaluation: Follow-up visits are used to monitor healing and determine when any next stage of treatment can proceed.
