Causes of Dental Bone Loss — Hamilton Guide
- Periodontal disease (the #1 cause): bacterial toxins in gum disease trigger the immune response that destroys alveolar bone
- Tooth loss: when a tooth is extracted, the bone that supported its root resorbs by 25–40% within 6 months without socket preservation
- Denture use: conventional dentures do not stimulate bone — accelerating resorption over years
- Infection: dental abscesses can cause localized bone destruction
- Trauma: facial injuries can damage bone directly
Preventing Dental Bone Loss — Hamilton 2025
- Treat gum disease early — scaling and root planing halts bone loss in most cases
- Socket preservation grafting at time of extraction — $500–$900 prevents bone collapse
- Dental implants — stimulate bone like natural tooth roots; prevent post-extraction bone loss
- Regular periodontal maintenance — every 3–4 months prevents bacterial re-colonization
Treatment for Existing Bone Loss — Hamilton
- Mild-moderate bone loss: scaling and root planing (deep cleaning) + periodontal maintenance
- Significant bone loss: periodontal specialist referral for possible bone grafting
- Missing teeth: implants (with or without bone grafting) restore function and prevent further bone loss
