Grafting Soft Tissue and Bone

When natural teeth are lost, some of the supporting bone and gum tissue is lost as well. In order to achieve the best esthetic and functional result, these tissues have to be replaced as well as your tooth. Using artificial and natural sources, this bone and soft tissue can be replaced by a number of grafting procedures. These procedures are designed to provide a natural shape and position to the restorations that you desire. Missing soft tissue and bone around natural teeth can be grafted as well, to return the tooth and gums to health.
