Ridge Augmentation

Where there is tooth loss, an indentation may result in the gums or jawbone where the tooth use to be.  With nothing to support, the jawbone recedes, creating an unnatural look.  Dental ridge augmentation (socket preservation, alveolor augmentation) is the procedure used to recapture the natural contour of the gums and jaw.  A new tooth can then be implanted, creating a natural look that compliments your smile.
