What Is a Dental Bone Graft?

Rebuilding jawbone to support a future dental implant.

A dental bone graft adds volume and density to your jawbone — either to repair damage from periodontal disease, to preserve the socket after an extraction, or to rebuild bone volume before an implant can be placed.rnrnAt Metro Dental, bone grafts are planned with the final implant in mind. Dr. Fedorenko's periodontist training means graft placement, healing, and implant integration are managed as one continuous pathway — not handed off between offices.

Why Patients Choose In-House Grafting

  • Periodontist expertise | Bone surgery is a periodontist's core training — precision matters.
  • Planned with implants | Graft placement anticipates the exact implant position planned from your CBCT scan.
  • Multiple material options | Autograft (your own bone), allograft (donor), xenograft, or synthetic — matched to your case.
  • Faster overall timeline | No cross-referral — one office handles graft + implant sequentially.
  • Sedation available | Oral sedation for anxious patients or longer procedures.
  • Written estimate | Graft + implant plan priced together before surgery.
Candidate Profile

Who Needs a Bone Graft?

Long-term tooth loss

Bone resorbs quickly after tooth loss — grafts rebuild what is needed for an implant.

After an extraction

Socket preservation grafts prevent bone loss while the site heals.

Severe periodontal disease

Gum disease destroys supporting bone — grafts can rebuild lost volume.

Planning for implants

Your CBCT shows insufficient bone to place an implant safely.

Failed previous graft

Revision grafting when a prior attempt did not integrate.

Trauma recovery

Accidents that damaged bone — rebuilding for future restoration.

Your Bone Graft Journey

Consultation & CBCT Scan

FAQ

Answers About Bone Grafts

4–6 months for full integration with native bone, confirmed by follow-up imaging before implant placement.

Surgery is under local anesthesia — most patients report mild-to-moderate soreness for 2–4 days after, managed with OTC pain relievers.

Depends on graft size and material. You receive a written estimate with the overall implant plan at consultation.

Autograft (your own bone), allograft (tissue-bank donor), xenograft (bovine), and synthetic. We match material to case.

Portions may be covered when the graft is medically necessary. We submit claims on your behalf.

Sometimes — for extraction + immediate implant + socket graft cases. Your CBCT shows whether this is safe.

Rarely, a graft doesn't integrate fully. We reassess with imaging and can perform a revision graft if needed.

Next Step

Foundation First, Implant Second

A successful implant depends on the bone beneath it. Our graft-to-implant pathway is planned as one coordinated treatment by a board-eligible periodontist — with CBCT imaging at every step.
