Ridge Augmentation in Houston TX
Restore the natural contour of your gums and jaw. Essential preparation for successful dental implants.
After a tooth is removed, the bone that used to support it can start to shrink as the area heals. That change can flatten the gumline, affect how your smile looks, and make it harder to replace the tooth later. Ridge augmentation rebuilds that lost contour in the gums and jaw — restoring the natural shape of the ridge and strengthening the area so it can support a future restoration. This is especially important when planning for a dental implant.
