Dental Bone Grafting Services in Oklahoma City
Dental bone grafting is a surgical procedure used to repair or rebuild bone tissue in the jaw. This treatment is often essential for patients who lack sufficient natural bone to support dental implants. Depending on the location and severity of the damage, we use different types of bone grafts to restore stability and prepare your mouth for long-term dental health.
A tooth bone graft is a safe, effective solution for individuals with periodontal disease, injuries or infections that have compromised bone structure. By restoring lost tissue, we can strengthen your jaw and ensure that it’s ready to support dental implants or for other restorative treatments.

Why is bone grafting necessary before dental implants?
Dental implants require a strong foundation to remain stable and functional. If bone loss has occurred, dental bone grafting restores the necessary support, ensuring that the implant integrates properly with the jaw.
-
What can I expect during the bone grafting procedure?
During the procedure, a small incision is made to place the graft material in the targeted area. The site is then closed to heal over time, allowing the graft to fuse with your natural bone and create a strong, stable base.

How long does it take to recover from dental bone grafting?
Recovery times vary but typically range from a few weeks to several months. Healing depends on the size and location of the graft, as well as your overall health. Regular follow-up appointments will help monitor your progress.
