Tooth loss has a wide-ranging impact on your daily life, affecting both oral function and coverall confidence.

A bone graft is a surgical procedure that helps rebuild bone. We will transplant healthy bone tissue to the area where more bone density is needed. Depending on the location and the amount of bone needed, we will use bone tissue that comes from you, sterilized tissue from an outside donor, or a man-made substitute.
Bone grafts are often necessary for patients in the aftermath of tooth loss. This is because losing a tooth also means losing jawbone mass. So you may need a bone graft to build up your jawbone, so it can provide adequate support for dental implants and replacement teeth.
A bone graft can save teeth you are at risk of losing from periodontal (gum) disease. In advanced cases of gum disease, inflammation can attack the bone surrounding your teeth. A grafting procedure will encourage the bone to regenerate, so you won’t lose teeth. Treating gum disease in its early stages will avoid the need for a graft.
