Bone Grafting for Dental Implants
Rebuilding the Foundation for Your Smile
Healthy bone is the foundation of successful implants and long-term oral health. When bone loss occurs from tooth extraction, trauma or periodontal disease, dental implants may require additional support. Bone grafting is a predictable procedure that restores volume and density, making it possible to place implants where they otherwise wouldn’t be possible.
Expertise You Can Trust
Dr. Egan and Dr. Paskett routinely perform grafting procedures, from minor ridge preservation to complex sinus lifts. With dual degrees in dentistry and medicine and years of surgical experience, they provide the highest level of care under IV sedation or general anesthesia. Our office uses the latest grafting materials and techniques to help your body regenerate bone.
Common Types of Grafts
- Socket preservation – placed immediately after extraction to maintain ridge shape for future implant placement.
- Ridge augmentation – restores width or height to the jawbone.
- Sinus lift – lifts the sinus membrane and adds bone in the upper jaw to support implants.
