Common Questions About Guided Bone and Tissue Regeneration
What is guided bone and tissue regeneration?
Guided bone and tissue regeneration is a surgical procedure that aims to restore lost bone and gum tissue in the mouth. It often involves the use of barrier membranes to protect and promote the growth of new bone and tissue. This treatment is commonly recommended for patients who have experienced significant gum disease or trauma leading to bone loss. Dr. Janice Kaeley utilizes advanced techniques to enhance the effectiveness of this regeneration process, ensuring optimal healing.
How long does the recovery take after the procedure?
Recovery time can vary from patient to patient, but you can expect a healing period of several weeks to a few months. Initial healing may take about one to two weeks, during which you should follow Dr. Kaeley's post-operative care instructions closely. Full regeneration of the bone and tissue may take longer, depending on the extent of the treatment and individual health factors. Regular follow-up appointments with Dr. Kaeley will be scheduled to monitor the healing progress and ensure everything is progressing as expected.
Will I experience discomfort after the treatment?
As with any surgical procedure, there can be potential side effects, including infection, swelling, or discomfort in the treated area. You may experience temporary changes in sensation or sensitivity around the surgical site. Dr. Kaeley takes great care to minimize risks by using sterile techniques and providing comprehensive pre-and post-operative instructions. It's essential for you to communicate any pre-existing conditions or concerns to Dr. Kaeley prior to undergoing the procedure.
