Changes and volume loss in the jawbone can occur for various reasons. The most common reason is that one or more teeth have been lost due to tooth loosening (35 %-40 % of all people suffer from tooth loosening diseases, also known as periodontitis) or that your dentist has removed a tooth for one or another reason. Already a short time after a tooth is lost, the jawbone resorbs. But it is possible to stabilize and rebuild the jawbone. With a bone regeneration material your dentist can fill in deformities in the jawbone and create the scaffolding needed for new bone to form.
