Bone Grafting in Plymouthin Southeast Michigan
Bone grafting is a specialized oral surgery procedure that helps rebuild and restore bone in areas where it’s been lost due to injury, infection, gum disease, or tooth loss. This treatment is often essential for patients who plan to receive dental implants, as adequate bone structure is crucial for long-term implant success.

The Benefits of Bone Grafting
Improved Implant Candidacy
Bone grafting helps create the robust structure needed to successfully anchor dental implants. Without sufficient bone density, implants may not integrate properly. Grafting sets the stage for secure, long-lasting restorations.
Preservation of Facial Structure
Tooth and bone loss can lead to sunken cheeks and premature aging. By restoring the bone beneath your gums, grafting helps maintain a more youthful facial profile and natural appearance.
Preventing Future Bone Loss
When bone loss goes untreated, it can continue to deteriorate over time. Bone grafting doesn’t just repair damage, it stimulates natural bone regeneration, helping to protect your long-term oral health.

What to Expect From Bone Grafting
Personalized Consultation and Imaging
Your journey starts with a one-on-one consultation with one of our skilled oral surgeons. We’ll review your health history, take detailed CBCT scans, and assess your unique anatomy. This digital planning phase allows us to determine the ideal grafting approach and ensure you fully understand the path forward. Every aspect of your treatment is tailored for both comfort and predictability.
The Bone Grafting Procedure
During your scheduled procedure, we’ll use a local anesthetic, often with the option for IV sedation, to ensure you're completely comfortable. Depending on your case, the graft material may come from your own body, a donor source, or a synthetic alternative. Our surgeons place the graft with high precision, using advanced tools guided by real-time imaging. The procedure is performed with minimal invasiveness to support smooth healing and maximize success.
Healing and Follow-Up Care
After your graft is placed, your body naturally begins to integrate the material and regenerate bone around it. This healing process typically spans three to six months. You’ll return to our Plymouth office for periodic check-ins so we can monitor progress and answer any questions. Once the bone has fully healed, you’ll be ready for the next step in your treatment, such as dental implant placement, confidently backed by a solid foundation.
