Welcome to Dental Park, your trusted destination for advanced dental care in Ghaziabad and the surrounding areas of Delhi NCR. If you’re facing tooth loss or extraction, you may have heard about a crucial procedure called Ridge Preservation. This innovative treatment is essential for maintaining the structure of your jawbone and ensuring the success of future dental restorations. At Dental Park, we’re proud to offer expert Ridge Preservation services under the skilled care of Dr. Jaisika Rajpal Arora, a renowned Periodontist & Implantologist with 18 years of experience in Periodontal Surgery and 17 years dedicated to Ridge Preservation techniques.
Understanding Ridge Preservation
Ridge preservation is a specialized dental procedure designed to maintain the volume and shape of the alveolar ridge following tooth extraction. The alveolar ridge is the bony structure that surrounds and supports your teeth. When a tooth is removed, the bone that once held it in place begins to resorb or shrink. This natural process can lead to significant changes in the shape and size of your jaw, potentially complicating future dental procedures such as implant placement.
Dr. Jaisika Rajpal Arora, with her extensive experience in performing hundreds of Ridge Preservation procedures over the past 15 years, understands the critical importance of this treatment for patients in Ghaziabad, Noida, Vaishali, Vasundhara, Indirapuram, Duhai, Hapur, Meerut, Muzaffarnagar, and Delhi.
Causes Necessitating Ridge Preservation
Several factors can lead to the need for Ridge Preservation:
- Tooth Extraction: The most common reason for ridge preservation is following a tooth extraction, especially when planning for future dental implants.
- Trauma: Accidents or injuries that result in tooth loss can damage the alveolar ridge, necessitating preservation techniques.
- Periodontal Disease: Advanced gum disease can lead to bone loss, making ridge preservation crucial for maintaining jaw structure.
- Congenital Defects: Some individuals may be born with deficiencies in their alveolar ridge, requiring preservation and augmentation.
- Tumor Removal: Surgical removal of oral tumors can leave defects in the jawbone that need preservation.
Types of Ridge Preservation Techniques
Dr. Jaisika Rajpal Arora is highly trained in all types of Ridge Preservation techniques, ensuring that each patient receives the most appropriate treatment for their unique situation. The main types include:
- Socket Grafting: This involves filling the empty tooth socket with bone graft material immediately after extraction.
- Guided Bone Regeneration (GBR): A technique that uses barrier membranes to direct the growth of new bone and soft tissue.
- Onlay Bone Grafting: For more significant defects, this method involves placing bone graft material on top of the existing ridge to increase its width and height.
- Ridge Split Technique: In cases of narrow ridges, this procedure involves splitting the bony ridge and widening it to accommodate implants.
- Sinus Lift: For upper jaw preservation, this technique may be used to add bone to the sinus area, creating more space for implant placement.
The Ridge Preservation Procedure: Step-by-Step
Under the expert care of Dr. Jaisika Rajpal Arora, the Ridge Preservation procedure at Dental Park typically involves the following steps:
- Consultation and Planning: Dr. Arora will thoroughly examine your oral health, take necessary X-rays, and discuss your treatment options.
- Preparation: The area is numbed with local anesthesia to ensure your comfort throughout the procedure.
- Gentle Tooth Extraction: If not already performed, the tooth is carefully removed to minimize trauma to the surrounding bone.
- Socket Cleaning: The extraction site is meticulously cleaned to remove any infected tissue.
- Graft Material Placement: Bone graft material is placed into the socket. This may be your own bone, donor bone, or synthetic materials.
- Membrane Application: In some cases, a protective membrane is placed over the graft to guide tissue regeneration.
- Suturing: The site is closed with sutures to protect the graft and promote healing.
- Post-Operative Care: Dr. Arora will provide detailed instructions for care following the procedure to ensure optimal healing.

Frequently asked questions:
What is Ridge preservation?
Ridge preservation is a dental procedure performed to maintain the volume and shape of the alveolar ridge after tooth extraction. At Dental Park Ghaziabad, Dr. Jaisika Rajpal Arora specializes in this technique to prevent bone loss and preserve the jaw structure for future dental work, particularly implants. This procedure is crucial in India, where dental health awareness is growing, and more patients are opting for long-term dental solutions.
What is the difference between socket preservation and Ridge preservation?
While often used interchangeably in India, there’s a subtle difference:
- Socket preservation focuses specifically on preserving the bone in the tooth socket immediately after extraction.
- Ridge preservation is a broader term that includes socket preservation but may also involve preserving the surrounding bone and soft tissue of the alveolar ridge.
At Dental Park, Dr. Arora tailors the approach based on each patient’s needs, often combining both techniques for optimal results.
Is a bone replacement graft for Ridge preservation necessary?
In most cases, yes. A bone graft helps maintain the ridge’s shape and volume, crucial for future dental work. At Dental Park Ghaziabad, Dr. Arora assesses each case individually. For many Indian patients, especially those planning for implants, a bone graft is essential to ensure sufficient bone density and structure for successful treatment outcomes.
What is the purpose of ridge?
The alveolar ridge is the bony structure in the jaw that surrounds and supports the teeth. Its purpose is to:
- Provide a stable foundation for teeth
- Maintain facial structure and aesthetics
- Support proper chewing and speaking functions
In the Indian context, where traditional diets often require strong dental support, maintaining a healthy ridge is crucial for overall oral health and function.
What is the use of Ridge preservation?
Ridge preservation serves several important purposes:
- Prevents bone loss after tooth extraction
- Maintains jaw structure for future dental implants or bridges
- Preserves facial aesthetics
- Reduces the need for more extensive bone grafting procedures later
- Improves outcomes for dental restorations
At Dental Park, Dr. Arora emphasizes the importance of ridge preservation to her patients in Ghaziabad and surrounding areas, as it sets the foundation for long-term oral health and successful dental treatments.
What is the best bone graft for Ridge preservation?
The best bone graft depends on individual patient needs. At Dental Park, Dr. Arora uses various types:
- Autografts (patient’s own bone) – considered the gold standard
- Allografts (human donor bone) – widely used in India due to availability and effectiveness
- Xenografts (animal-derived bone) – used when suitable and accepted by the patient
- Synthetic grafts – a good alternative for patients preferring non-biological options
Dr. Arora selects the most appropriate graft material based on the patient’s medical history, preferences, and specific clinical needs.
