Bone Augmentation is a term in dental surgery describing the method of adding bone material where there is a lack of bone in the jaw. A Corona Del Mar dentist will say that a lack of bone in the jaw may have many causes which include a removal of a cyst. When large cysts are removed, the balance and ratio of blood clots forming, as well as the amount of blood vessels growing from bone walls, becomes altered in a way that is inappropriate for bone regeneration. In this way a lack of bone in the jaw can be induced.
A Laguna Beach dentist knows that in order to avoid complications, such a lack of bone should be filled in immediately after cyst removal. Such a procedure is called a bone augmentation. Another example of loss of bone is bone loss caused by Periodontitis. With this issue, bone augmentation can also be necessary.
A Newport Beach Cosmetic dentist will also explain that there are still risks involved in performing such a procedure in the mouth and jaw. Complications can occur which call for further measures to be implemented. Some life-threatening complications for bone augmentation include the introduction of illness, a failure for augmentation to heal, and inflammation.
