Fayetteville Bone Grafting & Jaw Reconstruction
Restore the Functionality & Health of Your Jawbone
Half Moon Oral Maxillofacial and Implant Surgery offers bone grafting procedures as part of our oral-maxillofacial services. This surgical technique can improve the integrity of your jawbone for better dental function, comfort, and even better aesthetics. Our board-certified oral-maxillofacial surgeons (OMSs) not only replace deteriorated bone, but bone grafting can also promote additional bone growth in the treatment area. A healthy jawbone also allows for jaw reconstruction and dental implants to replace lost or surgically extracted teeth.
Some of the reasons you may need corrective jaw surgery apart from jawbone deterioration include:
- Difficulty chewing or swallowing food
- Chronic TMJ pain
- Excessively worn-down teeth
- Facial injuries or congenital facial defects
- Receding chin or protruding jaw
- Chronic mouth breathing or dry mouth

What Causes Jawbone Loss & Deterioration and How Can a Bone Graft Improve It?
The most common reasons for jawbone loss and deterioration that may require a bone graft include surgical tooth extractions, dental trauma, gum disease, misalignment, tumors, or developmental deformities. A bone graft can repair these sites with inadequate jawbone structure from infections, previous tooth extractions, gum disease, or injuries. Your bone graft will likely be a bone graft substitute rather than real bone harvested from your own tissue, as these synthetic materials are just as safe and effective as using real bone.
Types of Corrective Jaw Surgeries We Perform
Jaw, or orthognathic, surgery, is performed by an oral and maxillofacial surgeon to correct many types of skeletal and dental irregularities such as misalignments of the jaws and teeth to improve your ability to chew, speak, and breathe. At the same time, it may dramatically enhance the patient’s appearance, although its primary purpose is first and foremost to correct functionality problems. Jaw surgeries typically are a long-term commitment and a multistep process that typically includes orthodontics (teeth straightening procedures) before and after surgery. Your oral-maxillofacial surgeon and orthodontist will try to estimate the time required for your treatment so you can determine what to expect.
