BONE GRAFTING
Who Needs Bone Grafting?
- Have experienced tooth loss and are planning for dental implants.
- Have worn traditional dentures or bridges that caused long-term bone resorption
- Suffer from periodontal disease, which can destroy bone around the teeth.
- Need bone preservation after a recent extraction.
- Have been told you don’t have enough bone for implant placement.
- Want to improve jaw symmetry, structure, or facial aesthetics following bone loss.
- Sustained facial trauma that damaged bone and soft tissue.
What is Bone Grafting?
This regeneration process not only strengthens the jaw but also prepares it to support implants or other restorations, making bone grafting a crucial step in comprehensive oral rehabilitation.
Types of Dental Bone Grafts
Socket Preservation
This graft is placed immediately after a tooth extraction to prevent bone shrinkage. It maintains the height and width of the socket and ensures the site remains viable for future implant placement.
Ridge Augmentation
When bone loss causes the jaw ridge to appear sunken or narrow, ridge augmentation can restore its shape and volume. This graft improves the aesthetics and function of the jaw, especially in preparation for implants or cosmetic restorations.
Sinus Lift (Sinus Augmentation)
In the upper back jaw, bone height is often insufficient due to the proximity of the sinus cavity. A sinus lift raises the sinus membrane and places bone graft material underneath, creating the necessary depth for stable implant placement in the area.
Periodontal Bone Grafts
These grafts are used to treat bone loss caused by severe gum disease. The procedure helps regenerate bone around teeth, halting the progression of periodontal issues and improving tooth stability.

FAQ
What is bone grafting surgery?
How painful is bone grafting?
Does bone grow back after a bone graft?
How long does bone grafting take to heal?
Initial recovery typically takes one to two weeks, but full integration of the graft with your natural bone can take between three to six months. The exact healing time depends on the size of the graft and your body’s natural healing response.
Can bone grafting fail?
While bone grafting has a high success rate, failure can occur due to infection, smoking, or underlying health issues. Following your dentist’s aftercare instructions and maintaining good oral hygiene increases your chances of a successful outcome.
Can I get dental implants after a bone graft?
Yes. Bone grafting is often the first step toward dental implants. Once the graft has healed and the bone is stable, you can proceed with implant placement to restore function and aesthetics.
