Socket Preservation

Protects the site immediately after a tooth is removed—preserving bone and making future dental implant placement easier and more successful.

Ridge Augmentation

Restores lost bone along the jawline, creating a more natural shape and improving the fit and comfort of dentures or other restorations.

Sinus Lift

Adds bone to the upper jaw near the molars by gently raising the sinus floor—making it possible to support dental implants where bone loss has occurred.

Let’s talk about your smile

The Bone
Grafting Process

Personalized Consultation

Your smile is unique. That’s why we start with a comprehensive consultation, including digital imaging and a 3D CBCT scan, to map out your anatomy in detail. Our team will walk you through your options and recommend a grafting approach tailored specifically to your long-term goals, whether you’re planning for implants or restoring your oral health.

Grafting Procedure

On the day of your graft, we’ll make sure you’re fully comfortable with local anesthesia and optional sedation. Using advanced techniques and biocompatible materials, we’ll gently place and secure the graft in areas of bone loss. Whether it’s socket preservation after an extraction, a ridge augmentation, or a sinus lift, we focus on precision and care—always with your comfort in mind.

Healing & Monitoring

Bone grafting is a process that takes time—but we’re with you every step of the way. Over the next few months, your body will naturally integrate the graft, building up a healthy foundation for future treatment. You’ll return for check-ins where we’ll monitor your healing and make sure everything is progressing exactly as planned. When your bone is ready, we’ll move forward with the next phase of your treatment, like dental implant placement, with confidence.

The Benefits of
Bone Grafting

Brings your jaw back to health

Restores bone that has been lost due to dental extractions or the absence of missing teeth. This improves overall jaw structure and adds support for future dental procedures.

Get back to being a candidate

Single-tooth dental implants are completely indistinguishable from natural teeth. They will look natural when you smile and feel just like real teeth when you eat and speak.

Helps dentures fit better and feel more secure

Because the dental implant is implanted into your jaw bone, it prevents “bone resorption,” which happens when the jaw bone below a missing tooth is no longer stimulated by chewing and biting. This helps protect your overall oral health.

Protects your facial structure and smile

You can treat your single-tooth implant just like a natural tooth. To protect your oral health and your implant, all you need to do is brush twice a day and floss once a day, and see Dr. Tori or Dr. Luis for teeth cleanings and oral exams every six months.

“Dr. Tori and Dr. Luis are like family. I wouldn’t go to anyone else. If there’s anything I could say to them, it’s how grateful I am—for helping me return to a place where I don’t have to worry anymore. They changed everything.”

What is bone grafting?

Bone grafting is a surgical procedure used to rebuild or repair bone in the jaw or other areas of the body. It’s often performed to support dental implants or correct bone loss caused by injury, disease, or developmental issues. Skilled oral surgeons use various grafting techniques to ensure successful outcomes, enhancing the structure and function of the bone.

Is bone grafting painful?

Pain levels can vary depending on the individual and the extent of the grafting procedure. We use sedation and local anesthesia to minimize discomfort during the procedure. Post-operative discomfort is typically mild and can be managed with prescribed medications to ensure a smooth recovery.
