Bone Grafting
Bone Grafting in Mission, TX
If you have lost bone in your jaw due to missing teeth or gum disease, our specialized bone grafting techniques can help. We use biocompatible donor bone tissue (often from elsewhere in the body) and fuse it in places lacking jawbone. With this extra support, our dental implant dentist can successfully place dental implants by creating a support structure that is sturdy enough to hold dental implants for years.
Clover Hills Dentistry proudly serves the Mission, TX, area with quality dental services. Dr. Jo-Ann Collantes provide oral surgery for those that need to drastically improve their oral health. Our team is passionate about providing the highest level of care for all our patients, ensuring you receive the best service every time.

Benefits of Bone Grafting
When tooth loss occurs, the supporting ligaments and bone disappear too. But why does this happen? Our tooth roots are responsible for connecting the tooth to the alveolar bone and stimulating the jawbone so that it stays intact. When tooth roots are removed, the supporting jawbone is no longer stimulated and will dissolve through a natural process known as jawbone atrophy.
So, if you’ve already experienced jawbone atrophy, bone grafting can help. It’s a fantastic procedure that can heal bone damage, repair bone fractures, and help create a better flow of bodily fluids in the bone. Famously, bone grafting has been known to help regenerate bone growth and provide structure for new bone formation. Getting a bone graft can have a dramatic effect on improving bone health as it helps promote healing and encourages the regeneration of bone material. Not only does bone grafting increase bone strength, but it can also reduce pain and stress while improving a patient’s range of motion. Bone grafting is an incredible medical advancement with life-changing benefits for those needing it.
Expect Caring and Compassionate Care
Delivering dental care with empathy and kindness is vital to patients of all ages. Once you sit in one of our comfortable dental chairs, here’s what one can expect:
Preparation
Before confirming bone grafting surgery, Dr. Collantes will help you decide what material suits your needs and budget. If necessary, she might also remove severely infected or damaged teeth.
Bone Grafting Surgery
When your dentist wants to improve bone density, they might turn to bone grafting. During this process, new pieces of bone are inserted into the area needing repair, and the new cells form a seal that bonds with existing tissue for natural recovery.
