Why is the bone grafting procedure needed?

September 24th, 2010
Q.
I have been researching the dental implant treatment and have come across what is called the bone graft, where bone is taken from another area of the body to supplement the jaw bone, I think. Why would this be necessary? What reason would there be for the bone not being right in the jaw?

Can dental implants secure denture?

September 23rd, 2010
Q.
I have a denture and have done so for quite some time now. I have never felt all that comfortable with it but over time got used to it enough to get by. Now, I am contemplating getting dental implants as I have read that they can help to keep the dentures firmly in place, which mine has never felt like. How is it that they are able to do this and what would this involve? Also, would I be able to use the same denture?
A.
Dentures can have better reten… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)

Do implants cause bone to weaken?

September 23rd, 2010
Q.
I have a question about dental implants – do these cause the bone to weaken? I ask because it seems like drilling something into the bone will have the same effect as drilling holes into wood, causing it to crack a bit? Is there any possibility of this kind of thing or is my mind just thinking a bit too much about the problems?
