Bone and Tissue Regeneration

Dr. Gilio repairs bone and soft tissue damage caused by trauma or pathologic conditions.  The reconstruction may require specialized surgical techniques such as skin or bone grafts and the construction and placement of implants.


Regeneration
      
When you lose a tooth, both the gum tissue and new bone compete for the same defect space.
Without a membrane and graft placement, the gum tissue and not the bone will fill the space.

Placement

Gum Tissue
Takes Over
  

   

  

A membrane placement protects the bone defect space from the gum tissue and creates an improved bone foundation for implants.

Improved
Bone Foundation

A regeneration of bone provides a more solid foundation for restorative work.  As regeneration occurs, an implant can be used to assist in bone strength.  Dental implants are often placed in the optimal position for long term support of bridge work.
