Your new smile begins
Bone grafting is a surgical procedure where bone material is added to your jawbone to increase its volume and density. This is often necessary for dental implant placement, as implants require a strong foundation for proper function and aesthetics. Our oral surgeon offers various bone grafting options, including:
Preserves bone after tooth extraction, preventing bone loss and facilitating future implant placement.
Augments bone in the upper jaw when sinuses expand into the implant placement area.
Increases the width and height of the jawbone ridge for optimal implant support.
Protects sensitive nerves during implant placement and prevents complications.
Creates a strong foundation for long-lasting, functional, and natural-looking implants.
Prevents bone loss and facial collapse after tooth loss, maintaining your youthful appearance.
Enhances gum health and reduces the risk of further bone loss and future dental problems.
Bone grafting is an important part of restoring your smile if you are receiving a dental implant. If you do not have the bone structure to support your new dental restoration, Dr. Richard Cordero may suggest bone grafting to strengthen your mouth in preparation for the procedure.

If you require more intensive treatment, such as oral surgery, one of our surgical treatments is bone grafting. Bone grafting is typically used when preparing for a dental implant. This treatment can restore bone structure, which may have receded and been reabsorbed by the body after the loss of a tooth or due to periodontal disease.
Using a piece of bone from another part of your body or jaw, we will carefully transplant the bone material into the weakened area of the jawbone. Over time, this new bone tissue will fuse with the existing bone to create a strong, stable foundation for other restorative dental treatments. Artificial bone and bone fragments from a tissue bank can be used if needed.
This oral surgery treatment is usually only recommended if your bone density is not sufficient enough to support more rigorous restoration treatments. Our oral surgeon will discuss your treatment options with you so you can get the most out of your dental care.
We encourage you to ask our oral surgeon questions if you require bone grafting to restore your smile or prepare for a dental implant. We are happy to keep you educated about your care and provide the best possible treatment for your smile. Call us at 251-333-1700 or visit us today to learn more!
