What Is Bone Grafting?

Bone grafting is a surgical procedure that restores lost or weakened jawbone tissue, often necessary before placing dental implants. It involves adding bone material — either from your own body, a donor, or synthetic sources — to areas where the bone has deteriorated due to tooth loss, gum disease, trauma, or long-term denture use. By stimulating bone regeneration, grafting strengthens the jaw and creates a solid, healthy base for long-term dental restorations like implants.

In many cases, bone grafting is the first critical step in reversing years of bone loss and making advanced treatments like implants possible. Are you considering dental implants, but have been told you don’t have enough bone? Bone grafting may be the solution—schedule a consultation with Dr. Naysan today.

What Are the Benefits of Bone Grafting?

Bone grafting provides structural and aesthetic improvements that make future dental treatments possible and more successful. Key benefits include:

Improved Candidacy for Dental Implants

You’ll be able to support implants securely after restoring sufficient bone volume.

Preservation of Facial Structure

Bone loss can cause facial sagging—grafting helps maintain a youthful appearance.

Enhanced Oral Health

Rebuilding bone prevents further deterioration and stabilizes surrounding teeth.

Prevention of Tooth Shifting

Filling bone voids can stop remaining teeth from shifting into empty spaces.

Customized Treatment Options

Grafts can be tailored to small or large defects using advanced surgical techniques.

Who Is a Good Candidate for Bone Grafting?

  • Bone Loss: You’ve experienced jawbone shrinkage after losing one or more teeth.
  • Implant Ineligible: You need to restore bone volume before implants can be safely placed.
  • Gum Disease: Bone loss from periodontitis or trauma has weakened your jaw’s stability.
  • Dentures or Bridges: You need additional structure for a secure prosthetic fit.

The Bone Grafting Procedure

  1. Consultation & Imaging: Dr. Naysan evaluates your bone structure using digital X-rays or 3D scans to determine the type and extent of grafting needed.
  2. Graft Material Selection: Depending on your case, we may use autografts (from your body), allografts (donor tissue), xenografts (from animals), or biocompatible synthetic materials.
  3. Graft Placement: During the procedure, the bone material is precisely placed into the affected area and secured for optimal integration.
  4. Healing and Bone Regeneration: Over several months, your body naturally fuses with the grafted material, creating new, healthy bone.
  5. Follow-Up and Next Steps: Once healed, you may proceed with dental implants or other restorative treatments as planned.

Bone Grafting Frequently Asked Questions

Is bone grafting painful?

The procedure is done under local anesthesia or sedation, and most patients report only mild soreness afterward.

How long does bone grafting take to heal?

Healing typically takes 4 to 6 months, though this may vary depending on the extent of the graft and your overall health.

Do I always need bone grafting before dental implants?

Not always; it depends on your bone density. All-on-Four implants, for example, may be possible without grafting.

What is the success rate of bone grafting?

When performed by an experienced provider like Dr. Naysan, success rates are very high, especially with proper aftercare.

Can bone grafts fail?

While rare, grafts may not integrate properly due to infection, smoking, or certain health conditions. Proper care and follow-up reduce this risk significantly.
