Bone Grafting

Bone grafting is an essential procedure often performed in conjunction with dental implant planning. When the natural bone volume is insufficient, bone grafting is incorporated to address the deficiency. At ICS Dental Studio, Dr Skaf utilises bone grafting techniques to rebuild and augment the jawbone, providing a solid foundation for successful dental implant placement. This procedure is planned carefully to ensure optimal results and long-term implant stability. Bone grafting is necessary when there is insufficient bone volume, preserving the jawbone and enhancing the overall success of dental implant treatments.

During the bone grafting procedure at our East Hills dental practice, a small incision is made in the gum tissue to access the underlying bone. Then, bone graft material, which can be synthetic, from a donor or taken from the patient’s own body, is placed in the deficient area. The graft material serves as a scaffold, providing support and stimulating the natural growth of new bone cells. Over time, the grafted bone integrates with the patient’s existing bone, creating a stronger and healthier foundation for dental implants or other restorative treatments.

After the bone grafting procedure, a healing period is necessary for the new bone to develop and mature. This can take several months; during this time, the patient’s oral health and hygiene should be carefully maintained. Following successful bone grafting, patients can proceed with dental implant placement or other necessary dental procedures, restoring function and aesthetics to their smiles.

Socket Grafting

Socket grafting, or ridge preservation, is recommended after tooth extraction to prevent bone loss. By placing bone graft material in the empty socket, we maintain the shape and density of the jawbone. This procedure ensures optimal conditions for future dental implant placement, preserving your oral health and supporting long-term tooth replacement solutions.

Wisdom Tooth Extractions (with IV Sedation)

Wisdom teeth, or third molars, often cause pain, infection and overcrowding. Dr Skaf specialises in the extraction of wisdom teeth, using IV sedation to ensure your comfort throughout the procedure in East Hills. Wisdom tooth extraction is essential to prevent further complications, such as damage to adjacent teeth and gum disease.

Gum Grafting around Receded Teeth and Implants

Gum recession can result from gum disease, aggressive brushing or genetics. Gum grafting addresses receding gums using tissue from your mouth or a donor source to cover exposed tooth roots or implants. This procedure restores gum tissue, reduces sensitivity, and improves the appearance and long-term health of teeth and implants, hence your smile.

Gum Lifts for Gummy Smiles

If you’re self-conscious about excessive gum exposure when smiling, a gum lift can help. Also known as a gingivectomy or gum contouring, this procedure reshapes the gum line to achieve a more balanced and aesthetically pleasing smile. Gum lifts are ideal for individuals with a ‘gummy smile’, enhancing their confidence and overall facial harmony.

Sinus Lifts

When there is insufficient bone height in the upper jaw for dental implants, we may recommend a sinus lift. This procedure involves lifting the sinus membrane and adding bone graft material to create a solid foundation for implants. Sinus lifts enable patients with bone loss to receive successful dental implant treatment, restoring their ability to chew, speak and smile with confidence.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a gum graft?

A gum (gingival) graft involves augmenting gum tissue. A gum graft can treat gum recession, a condition where gum tissue pulls away from a tooth, exposing the tooth's root. Gum recession can lead to tooth sensitivity, increased risk of decay and other oral health problems. Dr Skaf performs gum grafts in East Hills, NSW, to help protect your teeth from the damaging effects of periodontal disease and gum recession.

The Gum Graft Procedure in East Hills

During the gum graft procedure at ICS Dental Studio in East Hills, Dr Skaf will take a small piece of tissue, either from another area of your mouth or a donor source, and attach it to the area where the gums have receded. This new tissue integrates with the existing gum tissue, creating a more protective gum line around the tooth.

Would You Like to Learn More?

At ICS Dental Studio in East Hills, we offer expert gum grafting procedures to our patients experiencing gum recession. Our team of experienced dental professionals use modern techniques to ensure your comfort and successful, personalised results. After the procedure, we continue to support our patients with thorough follow-up care.

If you're unhappy with the appearance of your gums or have gum recession, we invite you to book a consultation with Dr Skaf.

What is a sinus lift?

A sinus lift, or sinus augmentation, adds bone to the upper jaw, raising the sinus floor to allow for additional bone. Dr Skaf may recommend a sinus lift if the sinus location or height inhibits the successful placement of dental implants.

The Sinus Lift Procedure

During the sinus lift procedure, Dr Skaf will carefully lift the sinus membrane and insert a bone graft material into the newly created space between the sinus and jaw. This additional graft material encourages new bone growth and improves the quantity and quality of the jawbone, preparing it for future dental implant placement.

At ICS Dental Studio, we offer expert sinus lift procedures as part of our comprehensive range of dental implant services. Dr Skaf has extensive experience in oral surgery, including sinus lift procedures, bone grafting and implant placement. He works closely with each patient throughout the entire process, ensuring their comfort and safety.

What is a bone graft?

A bone graft repairs bones damaged from trauma or depleted due to conditions such as periodontal disease. Bone grafts are often used to restore the bone in the jaw to support the successful placement of dental implants.

The Bone Grafting Procedure

Our East Hills dentist, Dr Thaer Skaf, will transplant bone tissue to the targeted area in the jaw. Our dental practice can source bone tissue from the patient’s body or synthetic, biocompatible materials. Over time, the transplanted bone fuses with existing bone, creating a healthier, more robust jawbone.

Dr Skaf has extensive experience in performing bone grafting procedures. He and the team employ advanced techniques and use high-quality materials to ensure the best outcomes for our patients. Our team prioritises patient comfort and safety, providing comprehensive care throughout the entire process—from the initial consultation to post-procedure visits.

Picture the day when you can bite into your favourite foods without hesitation, speak clearly and radiate confidence with every laugh. The rewards of embarking on the journey to dental implants are truly life-changing.

However, you may need preliminary procedures to ensure a strong, healthy foundation for your new teeth.

What Procedures Might Be Necessary before Dental Implants?

At ICS Dental Studio, we want to make it possible for anyone to restore their smile with dental implants, so we offer the following procedures to prepare your mouth for implant surgery:

Bone grafting — If you have insufficient jawbone density, we can rebuild your jawbone, giving you the solid foundation you need to support dental implants.
Socket grafting — After tooth extraction, we place bone grafting material into the empty socket. This helps maintain your jawbone density, providing the best conditions for implant placement.
Sinus lift — When your upper jaw has insufficient bone height, we can lift your sinus membrane and add bone grafting material, creating a stable foundation for implant placement.
