Some people may have trouble wearing dentures or partials. This is sometimes due to an insufficient amount of bone. If Dr. Fugler determines the amount of bone is inadequate, a bone graft may be required when implants are placed. Bone loss occurs for many reasons. Some of these being tooth loss at an early age or trauma.
There are different types of bone grafts and procedures. During your consultation appointment, we will review the options available and determine which treatment will be the best for each patient’s restorative needs.
Bone grafts are done under IV Sedation. Dr. Fugler is trained and our facility is equipped to keep you safe and comfortable when undergoing this procedure.
