    Bone Grafting

    Bone Grafting

    bone graft

    Rebuild the bone that supports your teeth and implants.

    Bone grafting restores jawbone lost to disease or a missing tooth, creating a solid foundation for what comes next.

    Why bone is lost

    When a tooth is missing or gum disease advances, the jawbone in that area shrinks over time. Less bone can mean a weaker foundation for teeth and not enough support for an implant

    How bone grafting works

    We place grafting material where bone is needed, which your body uses as a scaffold to build new bone over the following months. For implants, this often happens before or at the time of placement, and may pair with a sinus lift in the upper jaw.

    Comfortable and planned in 3D

    We plan grafts with 3D imaging, numb the area, and offer sedation. Most grafts are routine and well tolerated.

    Treatment benefits

    Bone grafting rebuilds jawbone that has been lost to gum disease, an extraction, or a long-missing tooth. It's commonly done to create enough bone for a dental implant, and also to support teeth weakened by periodontal disease. Dr. Kim performs bone grafting in-house at PARCS Dentistry in Las Vegas.

    Questions?

    Here's everything you need to know before you reach out.

    Why do I need a bone graft for an implant?

    An implant needs enough healthy bone to anchor into. If bone has shrunk, a graft rebuilds it first.

    Is bone grafting painful?

    It's done with numbing and optional sedation, and most patients report only mild soreness.

    How long does it take to heal?

    New bone forms over a few months. We'll give you a timeline based on your case.
