Bone loss in the jaw is a serious dental concern often caused by untreated gum disease, tooth loss, or systemic health issues such as osteoporosis. When teeth are missing or the surrounding bone is infected, the jawbone begins to resorb (shrink), leading to facial sagging, bite misalignment, and difficulty with implants or dentures.
Request an AppointmentSwiss Dental offers comprehensive diagnostic tools, including digital X-rays and 3D scanning, to assess bone density and monitor bone changes over time. Early detection allows for more treatment options and better long-term outcomes.
Treatment may involve bone grafting to restore lost bone, often necessary before placing dental implants. We use biocompatible materials and collaborate with local oral surgeons to perform grafting procedures. Once bone volume is restored, implants or dentures can be placed with greater success.
Preventing bone loss starts with addressing the root cause—managing periodontal disease, replacing missing teeth, and maintaining excellent oral hygiene. Our team creates individualized care plans to stabilize bone health and prevent further deterioration.
