Bone grafting is a procedure we offer to replace lost bone tissue. This may be required when the bone deteriorates after tooth loss in order to place a dental implant.Many other conditions may also lead to bone loss and necessitate a bone graft. In addition to replacing missing jawbone, a bone graft also helps to promote new bone growth in that location.

Allogenic and xenogenic bone grafts do not require a second procedure to harvest bone from your own body, but the disadvantage is that these options lack autografts bone-forming properties. Dr. Cannon will help you determine which type of bone graft is best for your specific needs.
