Bone resorption prevention is a critical aspect of dental care aimed at maintaining the jawbone’s structure and strength. Bone loss often occurs after tooth loss, periodontal disease, or trauma, compromising oral health and aesthetics.

Preventive measures include bone grafting, guided tissue regeneration, and the placement of dental implants to stimulate bone growth and prevent further resorption. In cases of gum disease, treatments like scaling, root planing, and regenerative procedures can help preserve existing bone.

Dentists use advanced imaging techniques to assess bone health and determine the most appropriate intervention. Lifestyle factors, such as maintaining good oral hygiene and avoiding smoking, also play a crucial role in preserving bone density.

By addressing bone resorption early, patients can protect their oral health, improve the stability of dental restorations, and maintain a natural facial structure.
