Rebuild Your Jaw

Bone grafting rebuilds your jaw's strength. If you've been told you don't have the support for implants, your dentist can use grafting to make you a candidate.

The procedure starts with detailed imaging of your jaw. We ensure your complete comfort throughout treatment. Your dentist will use local anesthesia so you don't feel a thing.

Your dentist will place the synthetic or natural bone in weak areas of your jaw. We use advanced grafting techniques and premium materials throughout the procedure.

After the procedure is complete, the grafting material integrates with your natural bone. You will begin a healing process that develops new bone growth in your jaw.

You'll return to our office for regular exams to ensure proper healing. The integration process typically takes several months.

Restore Your Smile

With your newly strengthened jawbone, your dentist can progress to your durable smile solutions. Your rebuilt foundation supports various restorations.

We offer effective implant options at our practice. Implant crowns replace individual teeth. Implant bridges can close larger gaps.

Every option restores full chewing function. Your new teeth will blend seamlessly with your smile. Your dentist will ensure you feel confident about your bite.

Regular care maintains long-term success. You can maintain your normal oral hygiene routine to take care of your implants. You'll also visit us for checkups.

As a new patient, they were still VERY accommodating with my schedule and able to get me in for a cleaning and evaluate some discomfort I was having. They were extremely kind and went out of their way to make sure I understood all my insurance and options so their was no surprises before coming in for my appointment. Dr. Rashi was excellent and the first appointment was really thorough. She clearly has a lot of patients but it was obvious the health and well being of each individual patient is a priority.

The Invisalign process was definitely a journey. It took a while to get used to the new extra steps like flossing and brushing my teeth after every meal, but it was well worth it. I'm happy. Invisalign was the right choice for me.

I've been going to Dr. Rashi for years now. She's so kind, polite, & professional. The staff is very nice & the office's very clean. I made sure to request no fluoride for my daughters since I don't like the use of fluoride for my kids. I recommend this place : )

I have been going to smile care group with Dr. Rashi for many years. She makes my visits comfortable and feel personal. She always gives what I believe are the best recommendations on keeping up with my dental care. Ms. Yvette and the staff must all be cut from the same cloth. As I never see a person in the office with anything other than a welcoming face. It always feels great to be greeted by first name as you enter a building. Thank you 😃


Common Questions About Bone Grafts

How long will I need to heal after a bone graft?

Most patients return to normal activities within a few days. The complete healing process, where your jaw fully integrates the grafting material, typically takes three to six months. During this time, we'll monitor your progress with regular checkups. Your comfort and healing timeline may vary based on your specific procedure.

Can I get my implants immediately after bone grafting?

Your jaw needs time to strengthen after grafting. We typically wait several months before placing implants to ensure the best long-term results. During healing, we'll track your progress and let you know when you're ready for the next step.

How do I know if I need a bone graft?

During your consultation, we'll take detailed images of your jaw. These scans show your current bone density and help us determine if grafting is necessary. Many patients who've had missing teeth for a while need grafting to support implants successfully.
