Build a Solid Foundation for Your Replacement Teeth

A ridge augmentation can play a crucial role in preparing your mouth for restorations and implants. However, Dr. Anderson will thoroughly examine your mouth and overall jaw health before recommending any procedure.

If you do need the procedure, your dentist will rebuild the ridge in your mouth that holds your teeth in place. By restoring this foundation, you’re taking a big step toward a healthier, more functional smile. Your dentist will use advanced technology, such as CBCT scanning and digital X-rays, to ensure everything is planned to precision.

Once your mouth has healed, your dentist will move forward with your teeth replacements:

  • Implant or Traditional Bridges – These fixed solutions replace one or more missing teeth. After your ridge augmentation, bridges provide a stable foundation, resulting in a more natural look and feel. Implants eliminate the need to place crowns on surrounding teeth.
  • Implant Dentures – Secure and comfortable, implant dentures offer a full arch of teeth. Your augmented ridge provides excellent support, improving stability and preventing bone loss.
  • Full-Mouth Reconstruction – For extensive dental needs, this comprehensive treatment restores your entire smile. The ridge augmentation ensures a solid base for a variety of procedures, creating a balanced and functional result.
