Bone Regeneration East Brunswick, NJ

Bone Regeneration (Guided Tissue/Bone Regeneration)

Gum disease and tooth loss can lead to significant bone deterioration, making it difficult to support natural teeth or dental implants. Bone regeneration, also known as guided tissue or bone regeneration, is an advanced periodontal procedure designed to restore lost bone and provide a stable foundation for oral health. At Middlesex Periodontics & Dental Implants, PC in East Brunswick, NJ, Dr. Daniel Reich provides expertise in cutting-edge regenerative treatments to help patients regain both function and aesthetics.

What Is Bone Regeneration and How Does It Work?

Bone regeneration is a surgical procedure that stimulates the regrowth of lost bone tissue. It is commonly performed to:

  • Strengthen the jawbone before dental implant placement.
  • Reverse bone loss caused by advanced periodontal disease.
  • Improve the long-term stability of teeth affected by bone deterioration.

The bone regeneration process typically involves placing a bone graft material in the affected area, along with a special membrane that helps guide the bone’s natural healing process. Some membranes are bio-absorbable and dissolve naturally, while others require removal after healing. Additional regenerative methods, such as bioactive gels or laser-assisted periodontal therapy (LANAP), may be used to enhance results.

Types of Bone Regeneration Techniques

The right bone regeneration approach depends on the severity of bone loss and the patient’s treatment goals. Some commonly used techniques include:

  1. Bone Grafting – Bone from a donor source, synthetic materials, or the patient’s own bone is placed in areas with bone loss to encourage new growth.
  2. Guided Tissue Regeneration (GTR) – A protective membrane is placed between the gum tissue and bone graft to prevent soft tissue from interfering with bone healing.
  3. Laser-Assisted Regeneration LANAP therapy may be used to stimulate bone growth while eliminating bacteria and infected tissue.

These bone regeneration techniques help create a more secure environment for future dental restorations, such as implants or bridges, and contribute to long-term oral health.

What to Expect After Bone Regeneration Surgery

Patients undergoing bone regeneration can expect mild swelling and discomfort after the procedure, which can be managed with prescribed or over-the-counter pain medication. Key aspects of post-surgical care include:

Healing time varies, but new bone growth typically occurs over several months. Once the regenerated bone is strong enough, additional procedures like dental implant placement can proceed.
