Bone Grafting

Bone Grafting

Bone grafting is a transformative dental procedure designed to restore and strengthen the bone structure in your jaw. It is often recommended when the jawbone lacks the density or volume required to support dental implants or maintain optimal oral health. By rebuilding and reinforcing the bone, this procedure enables patients to regain full dental functionality while preserving facial structure. At Foothill Smiles, we use advanced techniques and materials in order to provide you with a comfortable and effective treatment tailored to your individual needs. Bone grafting offers a vital foundation for future dental work and improved oral health. Whether due to tooth loss, trauma, or gum disease, bone grafting can restore the strength and stability of your jawbone, creating a healthy base for dental implants and other restorative procedures. Our skilled team provides expert care and a reassuring environment, helping you feel confident every step of the way. If you want more information or to schedule a consultation, please contact Foothill Smiles in Foothill Ranch, CA.

Benefits Of Bone Grafting

How The Procedure Works

Bone grafting begins with a thorough consultation and imaging to assess the affected area. During the procedure, bone material—either synthetic, donor or from the patient—is carefully placed in the deficient area. Over time, the graft integrates with the existing bone, stimulating new growth and strengthening the jaw. Our team ensures precision and care, using state-of-the-art equipment to achieve optimal results. Most patients experience minimal discomfort, and recovery typically progresses smoothly with proper care.

Frequently Asked Questions
