Introduction

Whether you’ve experienced bone loss because of periodontal disease or trauma, we can still replace your missing tooth with an implant. Additional procedures like a bone graft, sinus lift, or ridge augmentation will need to take place to create a substitute for the bone that has been lost before placing a healthy implant.
