Request an AppointmentMaking Implants Possible Again
Many patients are told at other practices that they don’t have enough bone for a dental implant. In many of these cases, bone grafting can rebuild the missing structure and open up implant treatment as a realistic option again.
The Techniques Behind These Results
Depending on the location and extent of bone loss, results shown here may reflect ridge augmentation, sinus augmentation, or socket preservation — each targeted to a different type of bone loss and treatment goal.
What These Results Represent
Beyond making implant placement possible, successful bone grafting also helps preserve the natural contours of the jaw and face, preventing the sunken appearance that can come with untreated jawbone loss.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can bone grafting really make me a candidate for implants again?
In many cases, yes. Bone grafting rebuilds the structure needed to support an implant, even for patients previously told they weren’t candidates.
Which bone grafting technique is used for my case?
It depends on the location and extent of bone loss — options include ridge augmentation, sinus augmentation, and socket preservation.
How long after bone grafting can I get my implant?
Healing generally takes several months, though the exact timeline depends on the graft type and how much bone was needed.
Does bone grafting affect the appearance of my face?
Successful grafting helps preserve natural jaw and facial contours that might otherwise be affected by untreated bone loss.
I was told I don’t have enough bone for an implant elsewhere — can you help?
It’s worth a second opinion. Many patients previously told they weren’t candidates become eligible for implants after targeted bone grafting.
