What Is Bone Grafting?
Bone grafting is a procedure that adds or regenerates bone in areas where it has been lost or weakened. It’s commonly performed when a patient doesn’t have enough healthy bone to support a dental implant or to maintain facial structure after a tooth extraction. The graft material may come from your own body, a donor source, or synthetic materials—all selected for safety and compatibility.
When Is Bone Grafting Needed?
Preparing for Dental Implants
Bone grafting is often recommended if your jawbone is too thin or soft to securely support an implant.
Following Tooth Extraction
A graft placed after an extraction can help preserve bone volume and prevent future bone loss.
Gum Disease or Bone Loss
Severe periodontal disease can lead to bone deterioration. A graft may help restore support and health to the jaw.
Injury or Trauma
Bone grafting may be needed to repair damage caused by injury or facial trauma.
