Strengthen Your Smile Foundation with Nova Dental Care
At Nova Dental Care in Mundelein, IL, we believe a healthy, strong jawbone is the foundation for a confident smile.
When bone tissue has weakened or diminished — whether from tooth loss, gum disease, or injury — bone grafting can rebuild and restore the structure needed for lasting oral health and successful dental restorations.
Our experienced team uses gentle techniques and advanced materials to help regenerate bone naturally, preparing your mouth for treatments such as dental implants or simply improving overall jaw support and facial balance.
Bone grafting is a minor surgical procedure that replaces or regenerates bone in areas where it has been lost. A small amount of grafting material — either your own bone or a biocompatible substitute — is placed in the area needing reinforcement.
Over time, your body integrates the graft and produces new bone cells, restoring the density and strength of your jaw.
This treatment is commonly recommended to:
At Nova Dental Care, we tailor each grafting procedure to your specific needs and goals.
Socket Preservation
Performed immediately after a tooth extraction, this technique prevents bone shrinkage and preserves the ridge shape for future implant placement.
Ridge Augmentation
Used when bone loss has already occurred, this procedure rebuilds the natural width and height of the jawbone to create a stable base for implants or dentures.
Sinus Lift (Sinus Augmentation)
For patients missing upper back teeth, a sinus lift gently raises the sinus floor and adds bone material to allow for implant placement in the upper jaw.
Your comfort is our top priority.
Before the procedure, we’ll review your treatment plan and take detailed 3D digital images to assess your bone structure.
Depending on your case, bone grafting can be done as a standalone procedure or alongside an implant placement if sufficient support is already present.
Recovery after bone grafting is typically smooth and straightforward.
You may experience mild swelling or tenderness for a few days — this can be managed with over-the-counter pain medication and warm salt water rinses.
