Alveoloplasty

Alveoloplasty for Dental Implants in Elk Grove & Sacramento: Expert Care from Ora Dental Implant Studio

At Ora Dental Implant Studio in Elk Grove, CA, we are dedicated to providing comprehensive dental implant solutions for patients who need to restore their smiles and regain optimal oral health. One essential step in ensuring the long-term success of dental implants is preparing the jawbone to create a stable foundation for the implant. In cases where the jawbone is uneven, rough, or insufficient for implant placement, an alveoloplasty may be necessary.

Led by Dr. Devan Dalla, a recognized expert in implant dentistry with over 15 years of experience and a proven track record of more than 15,000 successful implant placements, our team takes pride in delivering advanced surgical carewith a patient-focused approach. We serve patients across Elk Grove, Sacramento, Galt, and surrounding areas, helping them navigate the implant process with confidence and support.

Why Alveoloplasty is Important for Dental Implants

Dental implants require a smooth, stable foundation to ensure proper integration with the jawbone. When a patient has experienced bone loss, uneven bone surfaces, or irregularities in the alveolar ridge (the part of the jawbone that supports the teeth), it can make implant placement challenging. In these cases, alveoloplasty is performed to:

• Smooth Rough Bone: Creating an even surface for secure implant placement.
• Enhance Comfort and Aesthetics: Reshaping the bone helps ensure that the final prosthetic looks and feels natural, providing better aesthetics and comfort.
• Promote Implant Success: Properly preparing the jawbone is essential for optimal osseointegration, which is the process by which the implant fuses with the bone to create a long-lasting, stable foundation.
• Eliminate Bone Irregularities: Alveoloplasty addresses sharp edges, ridges, or defects that could interfere with the success of the implant.

At Ora Dental Implant Studio, we use advanced 3D CBCT imaging to evaluate the condition of your jawbone and determine whether an alveoloplasty is needed as part of your personalized treatment plan.

When Alveoloplasty is Needed

Not all patients will require an alveoloplasty before dental implant placement. However, it may be recommended in the following situations:

• After a tooth extraction where the bone is left rough or uneven.
• When there has been significant bone loss due to long-term tooth absence, gum disease, or trauma.
• When the patient’s alveolar ridge is too thin or uneven to support an implant securely.
• When previous dental work has left the bone structure compromised.

Dr. Dalla and our team have extensive experience in evaluating bone health, providing customized solutions to ensure every patient receives the best possible foundation for their dental implants.

The Alveoloplasty Procedure: What to Expect

At Ora Dental Implant Studio, we provide a comprehensive and patient-centered approach to alveoloplasty and dental implant treatment. Here’s what patients can expect during the alveoloplasty procedure:

1. Comprehensive Consultation and Evaluation:

   • Dr. Dalla will perform a detailed assessment using 3D CBCT imaging to evaluate the condition of your jawbone and determine if an alveoloplasty is needed.
   • We will discuss your treatment options, goals, and expectations, answering any questions you may have about the procedure.

2. Bone Smoothing and Reshaping:

   • During the alveoloplasty, Dr. Dalla will carefully smooth, reshape, or build up the bone in the affected area to create a stable foundation for the implant.
   • If necessary, bone grafting material will be placed in the socket where a tooth was extracted, and the gum tissue will be sutured over the graft to promote healing.

3. Healing Period:

   • After the alveoloplasty procedure, the bone will need time to heal. Depending on the extent of the reshaping or bone grafting, this healing period may vary.
   • We will schedule follow-up visits to monitor your progress and ensure that your jawbone is healing correctly.

4. Dental Implant Placement:

   • Once the bone has healed and the alveolar ridge has been properly reshaped, we will proceed with guided implant placement using advanced technology for optimal precision and long-term success.
