Bone Grafting

BOOK NOW

Build a Strong Foundation for a Healthy, Lasting Smile

Healthy jawbone is essential for supporting your teeth and ensuring the long-term success of dental implants. When bone loss occurs due to missing teeth, gum disease, or injury, there may not be enough bone to securely support an implant. Bone grafting helps rebuild the jawbone, creating a strong foundation for future restorative treatment.

At Risus Dental Studio, we provide personalized bone grafting procedures designed to restore lost bone and prepare your smile for long-term success. Dr. David E. Gonzalez carefully evaluates your oral health and develops a treatment plan tailored to your unique needs, helping you move forward with confidence toward a healthier smile.

What Is Bone Grafting?

Bone grafting is a surgical procedure that restores or rebuilds areas of the jawbone that have been weakened or lost over time. The graft encourages your body to generate new bone, strengthening the area and providing the support needed for future dental restorations, especially dental implants.

Bone loss can occur for several reasons, including:

  • Missing teeth.
  • Advanced gum disease.
  • Tooth extractions.
  • Facial trauma.
  • Long-term denture use.
  • Natural bone resorption after tooth loss.

By rebuilding the jawbone, bone grafting improves both oral health and the success of future restorative treatments.

When Is Bone Grafting Recommended?

Bone grafting is often recommended when there is insufficient bone to support a dental implant or maintain proper oral function.

It may be beneficial for patients who have:

  • Bone loss after losing a tooth.
  • Bone deterioration caused by periodontal disease.
  • Jawbone damage following trauma.
  • Bone deficiencies after tooth extraction.
  • Insufficient bone for dental implants.
  • Long-term denture use resulting in bone resorption.
  • Areas requiring additional bone support before implant placement.
A comprehensive evaluation will determine whether bone grafting is necessary as part of your treatment plan.
