Bone Grafting for Dental Implants

At Davary & Smith Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery & Dental Implant Center, we provide advanced bone grafting procedures to restore the structure, volume, and integrity of the jawbone, often as a critical first step toward successful dental implant placement. Whether due to bone loss, trauma, or long-term tooth loss, our dual-degree oral surgeons offer precise, customized grafting solutions that support optimal outcomes.

What Is Bone Grafting?

Bone grafting is a specialized surgical procedure used to restore or augment areas of the jaw where bone volume is insufficient. Whether needed for implant support or to maintain facial structure after tooth loss, grafting helps rebuild a strong, stable foundation, ensuring long-term function, aesthetics, and implant success.

‍

When Is Bone Grafting Needed?

Bone grafting may be recommended in the following situations:

• After Tooth Extraction
To preserve the socket and prevent bone loss (ridge preservation)

• Insufficient Bone Volume
When the jawbone is too thin or soft to securely support a dental implant

• Long-Term Tooth Loss or Periodontal Disease
To rebuild areas where bone has deteriorated over time

• Post-Trauma or Infection
To repair bone damaged by injury, cysts, or severe infection

Specialized Bone Grafting Procedures We Offer

Socket Preservation
Protects and maintains the bone following tooth extraction, ideal for future implant placement.

Ridge Augmentation
Rebuilds the natural contour and width of the jaw when bone has been lost due to resorption or trauma.

Sinus Lift (Sinus Augmentation)
Carefully elevates the sinus membrane and places bone beneath it in the upper jaw, creating sufficient height and volume to support dental implants.
