Bone Grafting: Rebuilding Your Jaw for a Healthy Future
When a tooth is lost, the bone that once supported it begins to shrink due to lack of stimulation. Over time, this can lead to significant bone loss, making it difficult—or even impossible—to place a dental implant without additional support.
Bone grafting solves this problem by restoring lost bone volume. We place a grafting material (often natural or synthetic bone) into the area where bone is lacking. Over the next several months, your body integrates the graft, forming strong new bone that can securely hold a dental implant.
If you’ve been told you’re not a candidate for implants due to bone loss, we can help. Bone grafting rebuilds and strengthens your jaw, making it possible to support implants and restore your smile.
Thinking about dental implants but told you don’t have enough bone to support them? Don’t worry! We have plenty of options and the skill and experience to transform your smile. At Harmony Dentistry, we offer bone grafting and sinus lift procedures to rebuild and strengthen your jaw, making it possible to enjoy the life-changing benefits of dental implants, even if you’ve experienced bone loss.
