BONE PLACEMENT

Bone placement, also known as bone grafting or bone augmentation, is a surgical procedure used to restore or increase bone volume in the jaw. It involves placing bone graft material into areas where bone density has been lost due to tooth loss, trauma, or disease. The graft material stimulates new bone growth, providing a stable foundation for dental implants or improving the fit of dentures. Bone placement enhances oral health and aesthetics, supporting long-term dental function and stability.
