Common Questions About a Ridge Augmentation
Will I experience pain during my ridge augmentation?
You'll remain comfortable during your ridge augmentation procedure with local anesthesia. We offer sedation if you feel anxious about dental treatments. You may feel slight pressure but no pain during the actual procedure. We'll provide specific pain management instructions and medication recommendations for your recovery period.
Can I get dental implants immediately after ridge augmentation?
You'll typically need to wait after your ridge augmentation before receiving dental implants. This waiting period allows the grafted bone to fully integrate with your existing jawbone. Your dentist will monitor your healing progress with follow-up appointments and imaging. This patience ensures your implants have the strong foundation they need for long-term success.
Is ridge augmentation always necessary before getting dental implants?
You may not need ridge augmentation if you have adequate bone density in your jaw. Your dentist will thoroughly evaluate your jaw structure using advanced imaging technology. You may qualify for specialized implant techniques that work with minimal bone volume. We always recommend the least invasive treatment approach that will provide successful, long-lasting results for your specific situation.
