Bone grafting restores strength to areas of the jaw affected by bone loss, trauma, or gum disease.
Bone grafting creates a solid foundation for dental implants and helps maintain facial shape and function.
We support you every step of the way - from preparation through recovery - to ensure the best results possible.
After your bone grafting procedure, it is important to follow your dentist’s instructions for recovery, which may include dietary restrictions, medications, and avoiding strenuous activities.
Bone grafting is a specialized dental procedure used to rebuild or strengthen areas of the jaw where bone has been lost. This is often necessary for patients preparing for dental implants or recovering from gum disease or trauma.
At Comprehensive Dental Center, Dr. Blake Weil uses bone grafting to:
Rebuild bone structure after tooth loss or periodontal disease
Support successful placement of dental implants
Preserve or restore the natural shape of your jaw and facial profile
By restoring lost bone, we help create a strong foundation for your long-term oral health and confident smile.
Bone grafting offers a range of functional and aesthetic benefits, especially for patients preparing for dental implants. By replacing lost bone, the procedure creates a stronger foundation for implants, helping to reduce the risk of implant failure. It also preserves the natural shape of the jaw, preventing facial collapse and maintaining your facial structure over time. Additionally, bone grafting strengthens weakened areas of the jaw, reducing the chance of infection and supporting better healing. With Dr. Blake Weil’s personalized approach, each treatment is tailored to maximize stability, comfort, and long-term success.
At New Haven Dental Center, we understand that bone grafting is an important part of many oral surgery procedures. Our team of experienced dentists is dedicated to providing the highest quality of care and ensuring that our patients receive the best possible results. We offer a variety of bone grafting techniques to suit the individual needs of each patient.
One of the most common types of bone grafting is autogenous bone grafting. This type of graft involves taking a small amount of bone from one area of the body, such as the chin, and transplanting it into the jawbone. This type of grafting is often used when there is not enough bone in the jaw for the implant to be securely placed. Autogenous bone grafting is also beneficial for those who want to restore the natural shape of the jawbone.
Another type of bone grafting is allografting, which involves using donor bone. Allografts are typically sourced from a tissue bank and are processed and sterilized before being used. Allografts are often used when a patient does not have enough of their own bone to use for the grafting procedure. Allografting can also be used to help restore the shape of the jawbone.
At New Haven Dental Center, we are committed to providing the best possible care for our patients. Our team is experienced in performing a variety of bone grafting procedures and will work with you to determine the best course of treatment for your individual needs.
Before your bone grafting procedure, our team will walk you through the entire process so you feel confident and prepared. This includes:
Reviewing your medical and dental history
Taking any necessary X-rays or scans
Providing clear pre-operative instructions, including medications and dietary guidelines
Our goal is to set you up for success with thorough preparation and attentive support every step of the way.
Recovery is an essential part of the bone grafting process. While healing times can vary, most patients experience only mild discomfort and swelling, which can be easily managed with medications.
To support healing, we recommend:
Avoiding hard or crunchy foods
Following any prescriptions and hygiene instructions closely
Attending follow-up visits so we can monitor your progress
Our team is here to support you during every stage of recovery and ensure your bone graft integrates successfully.
