Occasionally the\u00a0overall treatment of gum disease requires bone re-contouring or bone surgery. Although the vast majority of gum disease therapy\u00a0should be non-surgical.<\/p>\n

Infection and inflammation in the jaws will also destroy bone. Once the infection or inflammation has been eliminated, it may be necessary for the support of the remaining teeth or implants to regenerate the lost bone, recreating the original shape of the jaw bone and thereby restoring health, form,\u00a0and function.<\/p>\n","url":"https:\/\/nqsurgicaldentistry.com.au\/category\/bone-surgery\/","hasPart":[{"@type":"BlogPosting","@id":"https:\/\/nqsurgicaldentistry.com.au\/neoss-sms-conference-2019\/","headline":"NEOSS SMS Conference 2019","url":"https:\/\/nqsurgicaldentistry.com.au\/neoss-sms-conference-2019\/","datePublished":"2019-05-28","dateModified":"2021-04-18","mainEntityOfPage":"https:\/\/nqsurgicaldentistry.com.au\/neoss-sms-conference-2019\/","author":{"@type":"Person","@id":"https:\/\/nqsurgicaldentistry.com.au\/author\/admin\/#Person","name":"admin","url":"https:\/\/nqsurgicaldentistry.com.au\/author\/admin\/","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","@id":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/7e8332d597554647ad1a751e441d0749?s=96&d=mm&r=g","url":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/7e8332d597554647ad1a751e441d0749?s=96&d=mm&r=g","height":96,"width":96}},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Dr Colin Priestland","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","@id":"https:\/\/nqsurgicaldentistry.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/index.png","url":"https:\/\/nqsurgicaldentistry.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/index.png","width":577,"height":143}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","@id":"https:\/\/nqsurgicaldentistry.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/neonoss.jpeg","url":"https:\/\/nqsurgicaldentistry.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/neonoss.jpeg","height":442,"width":837},"keywords":null}]}
