Bone Grafting in Garland, TX
Dental implants require a solid foundation of bone to replace the root of a natural tooth. At Smile Again Dental, we assess your bone strength and, if needed, use bone grafting to ensure your implant has the best possible support.
Why Bone Grafting is Essential for Dental Implants
When your natural bone has eroded or is too weak, a bone graft can regenerate the necessary structure to support a dental implant. Bone grafting stimulates new bone growth, enhancing the long-term success of your implant.
Common Causes of Bone Loss
Bone surrounding your teeth can deteriorate due to various factors, including:
- Bone defects or infection
- Acid erosion
- Cracked or extensively decayed teeth
- Thin or insufficient bone to support implants
- Untreated periodontal disease
- Missing teeth
- Other medical conditions
- Poorly-fitting dentures
- Bone density weakness

Bone Grafting at Smile Again Dental
At our practice, we determine if you have sufficient bone to support an implant. If not, bone grafting is performed to build up your bone structure. A successful graft generates new bone, ensuring your implant is securely anchored.
