What is a Ridge Augmentation ?

Ridge augmentation is a bone grafting procedure that rebuilds the height and width of the alveolar ridge, the section of jawbone that once held your tooth roots, after it has shrunk or collapsed following tooth loss.

When a tooth is lost and not replaced promptly, the surrounding bone begins to resorb. Over time the ridge narrows and flattens. Ridge augmentation restores it to the dimensions needed for proper implant positioning, long-term stability, and natural-looking results.

are you a CANDIDATE

Ridge augmentation may be the right first step if any of these apply to your case:

  • You have a narrow or sunken jaw ridge at a tooth loss site

  • You have been told your ridge is too thin for implants

  • You have been missing a tooth for several years without a replacement

  • You experienced bone loss from gum disease, trauma, or a failed restoration

  • You want implants that are correctly positioned for the best long-term outcome

What to Expect During Your ridge augmentation Treatment

step by step Procedure

A precise, personalized process designed for full arch restoration and lasting results

1

Assessment and Imaging

Cone beam CT imaging measures the existing ridge dimensions and identifies where bone volume is deficient. This tells us the exact amount and type of augmentation needed before implant placement can proceed.

2

Graft Placement

Bone graft material is placed at the deficient ridge site. A barrier membrane is typically used to guide new bone growth and protect the graft during healing. The area is then closed with sutures.

3

Healing and Bone Maturation

Over 3 to 6 months the graft integrates with existing bone and the ridge rebuilds to the required width and height. Follow-up imaging confirms the site is ready for the next phase.

4

Implant Placement

With the ridge restored, implant placement proceeds as planned. The result is an implant positioned correctly in three dimensions, supported by sufficient bone for long-term stability and natural aesthetics.

Benefits

BENEFITS of ridge augmentation

Unlocks Implant Placement

Unlocks Implant Placement

For patients with a collapsed or narrow ridge, augmentation makes properly positioned implants possible where they otherwise could not be placed.

Better Aesthetics at the Gumline

Better Aesthetics at the Gumline

A rebuilt ridge creates natural gum contours around the final crown, so the result looks like a real tooth rather than an implant filling a gap.

Stops Further Bone Loss

Stops Further Bone Loss

Augmenting the ridge arrests the ongoing deterioration of the jawbone and restores structural support to the surrounding teeth and facial tissues.

Performed In House

Benefits

Full Arch Restoration

All-on-6 replaces an entire arch of missing teeth with one fixed, comprehensive solution — upper, lower, or both.

Superior Stability

Six implants distribute bite force more evenly across the jaw than fewer-implant solutions — providing a more natural feel and greater long-term stability.

No Dentures Required

Your new arch is permanently fixed — no removal at night, no adhesives, no slipping, no dietary restrictions.

Long-Term Results

With proper care and regular checkups, dental implants are designed to be a long-term solution. Results vary by patient, and our team will give you an honest assessment of what to expect during your consultation.

Ridge Augmentation FAQs

How is ridge augmentation different from regular bone grafting?

Ridge augmentation is a type of bone grafting. The term specifically refers to rebuilding the alveolar ridge, the jawbone section that holds teeth, when it has lost width or height and needs to be reshaped before implants can be placed.

How long does it take to heal after ridge augmentation?

Most patients need 3 to 6 months for the graft to fully integrate before implant placement can proceed. The timeline depends on how much bone was added and where in the jaw the procedure was performed.

Will I have a gap in my smile during healing?

A temporary restoration can be placed over the site during the healing period so you are not left with a visible gap. Dr. Krinick will discuss your interim options during the consultation.

Is ridge augmentation always necessary before an implant?

Not always. It depends on how much bone remains at the site. Cone beam CT imaging during the consultation will tell us definitively whether augmentation is needed or whether an implant can be placed directly.
