Is it possible to restore loss of wisdom teeth bone?

June 27, 2024
Asked By:J. T in Coffeyville, Kansas

I had all 4 of my wisdom teeth removed over 10 years ago. Almost immediately after the extractions, I noticed changes in my face shape where the teeth were extracted (notably a hollownesss and changes in my upper & lower jaw/face area). Is there any way to restore the jaw area where the wisdom teeth used to be, such as with bone graft augmentation or implants?
