Bone grafting helps replace bones destroyed by serious gum disease, also referred to as periodontitis. If you suffer from periodontal or gum disease, Dr. Olan, an experienced periodontist in Whitestone, may suggest a bone graft.

During a bone graft, Dr, Olan folds back part of the gum and cleans out problem bacteria that worsens gum disease. He then inserts the bone grafts, which fuses with the body to help build new bone.

In addition, Dr. Olan may also suggest a procedure called  Soft Tissue Grafting to treat diseased gums that supports your teeth. Bone grafting is an advanced method thatDr. Olan can use to treat gum disease and help patients keep their teeth much longer.
