Dr. Fama the staff do a great job of explaining what kind issues I am having with my teeth, how best to treat them and what I can expect the cost will be before they do the work. Everyone is very nice! It was actually almost enjoyable when I got a root canal.

Improve Your Life With Ridge Rehabilitation
Ridge augmentation treatment rebuilds the jawbone foundation where teeth are missing. After you lose one or more teeth, the surrounding bone begins to deteriorate and recede. This can leave insufficient bone volume to properly support dental implants.
During the ridge augmentation procedure, your dentist will access the treatment area and pack bone grafting material into the jaw ridge. This grafting material, often obtained from donated bone or synthetic sources, acts as a stimulant to generate new bone cells.
After a few months of healing, the grafted area will be reinforced with enough new bone growth to securely support dental implants. At Allouez Family Dental, we precisely plan this multi-phase process using advanced 3-D imaging from our cone beam CT scanner.
Afterward, you will enjoy all these benefits of dental implants:
- A beautiful, natural-looking smile
- Improved ability to eat and enjoy your favorite foods
- A younger, more robust appearance
- Better oral health and total body health

Common Questions About Ridge Augmentation
We perform this procedure if your jaw isn’t wide enough to support dental implants. It involves adding bone graft material to a small ridge along the top of your upper or lower jaw. It may be necessary if you’ve lost height and width in your jaw after losing teeth. In addition to preparing you for implant placement, it improves your appearance.
The cost will vary depending on the condition of your jaw and how much of the area needs to be restored. We will be able to give you a cost estimate after examining your jaw and determining how much work needs to be done. Dental or medical insurance may pay part of the cost.
Ridge augmentation is often performed to prepare a patient’s mouth to receive dental implants. If the jaw is too thin or the ridge isn’t tall enough to support implants, then augmentation may be needed. Ridge augmentation is also done to make the area where you’ve lost a tooth more attractive. Building up the ridge will ensure a more natural-looking jawline.
