Bone grafting is a specialized oral surgery procedure designed to restore lost or weakened bone in the jaw. If your jawbone lacks the necessary density to support a dental implant or other restorative treatments, a bone graft can provide the reinforcement needed. By placing new bone material in areas where the jaw has resorbed, this procedure encourages natural bone regeneration and strengthens your overall oral structure.
Why Bone Grafting May Be Necessary
Jawbone deterioration can occur for several reasons, including tooth loss, periodontal disease or trauma. When a tooth is missing for an extended period, the bone in that area begins to shrink due to lack of stimulation. This resorption can compromise your ability to receive a dental implant or other restorative procedures. Bone grafting can reverse this process by rebuilding the lost bone and creating a stable foundation for future treatment.
In addition to dental implant preparation, bone grafting may be recommended to support overall jaw health. If gum disease has led to bone loss, a graft can help reinforce the area and prevent further deterioration. Bone grafting is also used in certain cases of injury or congenital defects where bone development is insufficient.
How Bone Grafting Works
During a bone grafting procedure, our dentists will place new bone material into the affected area. This material may come from your own body (autograft), a tissue bank (allograft), animal sources (xenograft) or synthetic materials (alloplast). The type of graft used will depend on your unique needs and treatment plan.
Over time, the grafted bone integrates with your existing jawbone, encouraging new bone growth and strengthening the area. The healing process can take several months, but once the bone has fully integrated, it provides a stable, long-lasting foundation for dental implants or other restorative treatments.

Great customer service. I took my 12 year old son in to get a cleaning and update on his teeth. They taught him about his teeth, how to clean them, emphasis on importance of your teeth cleaning methods, and payment breakdown for work needed. Very affordable and I love the pay as you go option they give.
