Dental Bone Grafting

Strengthen the Foundation of Your Smile

Dental bone grafting is necessary when there is a deficiency of natural bone in the mouth to support dental implants. This deficiency can be caused by developmental defects, gum disease, face injury or trauma, or empty space after teeth were removed.

There are several types of dental bone grafts. The best solution depends on the damage that needs to be repaired and the location of the lost tooth. Dr. Skelton takes the time to cover all of your options so both of you can find the best solution for your unique needs.

Dental bone grafts are a fairly common procedure, they are safe and a great long-term solution for someone who has lost a tooth due to periodontal disease, injury, or another type of dental or mouth infection.
