Bone and sinus treatment

Serving patients throughout Southampton, Fareham and Park Gate

When a tooth is lost, the jawbone beneath it shrinks from lack of stimulation and can change the shape of your mouth. Loss of bone can also be caused by gum disease, tooth development defects, trauma, and by previous dental procedures where efforts were not made to restore natural bone.

Before dental implant treatment can begin your dentist will first need to check that there is sufficient bone for an implant to be placed successfully. If there is insufficient bone you may need to have pre-treatment before your dental implants can be placed. This may include oral surgery procedures such as bone grafting, bone expansion or sinus lifts.

At your initial consultation our implant dentist, our dentist, will use x-rays and scans to establish if pre-treatment is required and will explain this further.

Pre-treatment

Bone expansion

Your dentist may recommend a bone expansion if your jawbone is too narrow for a dental implant to be fitted. This involves making a small hole into your jawbone where your implant will eventually sit and using bone graft material to widen and strengthen the bone. The bone will be left to heal before a dental implant can be successfully installed.

Bone graft

Bone grafting is a treatment that is used to strengthen the area of bone your dental implant will be inserted into. This involves taking bone from elsewhere in the mouth and placing it in the area to be strengthened. After a number of months, this will fuse together, creating a stronger base for your implant.

Sinus lift

If there is not enough space to fit a dental implant in your upper jaw, our dentist may recommend a sinus lift. This involves moving the sinus membrane upwards to create space in your bone for your new tooth. Once the membrane has been moved, a bone graft will fill the space that has been created to make a suitable space for your dental implant.

Once our dentist is happy your bones and gums are healthy, your dental implant treatment can begin.

I had the Hygiene Spa experience with Linda and she was absolutely amazing from start to finish. She was so friendly, knowledgeable and genuinely compassionate, which instantly put me at ease. The treatment itself was excellent, really gentle, thorough and honestly the best hygiene appointment I’ve ever had. I felt so comfortable the whole way through. I was so impressed that I rebooked again for two months’ time. The Oral Spa experience is fantastic, and Linda made it even better with her lovely approach. Highly recommend!

The patient was my 10 year old grandson who had previously been frightened of going to his NHS dentist. After the appointment at Titchfield he said that he had enjoyed his visit!

Very efficient and friendly team

The appointment was readily organized. I was told exactly what was happening throughout the treatment. Unnecessary work (discovered during treatment) was highlighted and not done. The treatment was basically pain free. I arrived just in time and was almost immediately being treated. The reception staff were friendly and efficient. With no issues or concerns I could only give highly satisfied responses.

As always, friendly and professional approach from the team which makes each appointment something to look forward to rather than dread.

I have been attending Titchfield for a number of years. I am always treated with great courtesy and friendliness. The treatment is always excellent. I am a nervous patient and this is always taken into full consideration. The hygienist knows me particularly well and is always very careful and exceptionally helpful. I am always given excellent advice.It is always easy to park and my appointments take into consideration double visits eg visiting the dentist for a checkup and the hygienist on the same day with following appointments. I like being able to 'spread the cost' of regular treatment using the plan provided. For two years I lived on the Isle of Wight. After a poor experience at the dentist there I returned to Titchfield Dental Practice even although it meant travelling especially to do so. I would not want to go anywhere else. Thank you Titchfield.
