A bone graft is a type of oral surgery that strengthens your jaw for dental implants by using a special bone grafting material or donor tissue. Missing teeth are often the cause of bone loss because your jaw begins to deteriorate around the holes left by your missing tooth roots. Your jawbone can also be naturally thin or gradually lose its density with age. A bone graft reverses this deterioration, giving your jaw a thick, sturdy foundation for treatments like implants.
Once your jaw has healed from your bone graft, we can recommend a variety of implant options:
If you happen to be nervous about your bone graft procedure or simply don’t want to feel anything during your appointment, we can keep you relaxed with dental sedation. With IV sedation, you will probably doze off and remember little to nothing about the procedure.

I’ve been a patient here for years and love this dentist. They are always super friendly and Huong, my dental hygienist is amazing! She is super informative and helps you know how to improve your home care and provides very helpful feedback. Highly recommend.
Outstanding dentists with a welcoming staff. This team provides the most advanced technology when caring for their patients teeth and they do so in a most comfortable environment. I am also grateful to Julia for her helpful advice regarding my parent’s sleep apnea.
The staff is really helpful with any concerns, they are always there to help you. I been having a great experience so far throughout my appointments. Huong has been a great person giving me helpful information about my dental hygiene.
I’ve been going here for almost 7 years now, love them! I get a lot of anxiety going to the dentist, but this team is top notch and does an excellent job every time. Great communication, easy to schedule appointments, and of course top quality dental work. I needed a referral to a dental surgeon at one point in my dental care, and I had a great experience with their referral network, as well.
Houston Uptown Dentist is fabulous! Very friendly staff and extremely clean. Wendy was helpful, accommodating, and talked me through my entire process. Would highly recommend.
Wendy and Dr Juarez were amazing and I love this place!!! Been a patient since 1998 and would recommend this dental practice to everyone!! This is the best, and the staff are so friendly!
Houston Uptown Dentist is the only dentist office for me! I love Dr. Juarez, my hygienist Jennifer and the support staff, especially Bernadette. I trust them with my care and I am extremely grateful for their attention to the details!
Dr. Juarez and her team are nothing but awesome! She is always on top of her profession – always willing to do whatever it takes to serve her patients. I wish we lived closer so that my husband and I could go to her more than we are able.
My first appointment at Houston Uptown Dentists was the best Dentist visit that I have ever had. Dr. Juarez and Sabrina were thorough and addressed all of my concerns in one visit. Before I left the office, I was able to get a detailed treatment plan that included the cost for my upcoming treatments. Their office is really efficient and they value each patient.
Houston Uptown Dentists are AWESOME (shoutout to Jennifer – she’s great)! I’ve always been a little terrified of the dentist, and as a result, I avoid it more than I should. I had a wonderful experience with the office and would HIGHLY recommend them to anyone. They took extra care to make me feel comfortable and walk me through all the things that were happening. If you’re looking for someone or don’t have good experiences with your current provider, check them out!
A bone graft strengthens your jawbone after you have lost teeth. Bone loss is a consequence of tooth loss since the tooth is no longer there to stimulate the bone underneath it. We’ll insert a special material in the socket and cover it to protect the area. Over time, the material will actually become part of your bone as it stimulates new growth. Because your bone is stronger, you can become a candidate for dental implants.
There are many cases where bone grafts are necessary. The most common reason we suggest a bone graft is if you have a thin bone but would like to have a dental implant placed. We can sometimes recommend this as soon as your tooth is extracted to prevent as much bone loss as possible. Bone grafts can also help prevent tooth loss due to gum disease.
Bone grafts are performed with the utmost care at our office. Our team has many years of training and experience between us, as well as advanced technology, to help make such procedures more precise and comfortable. Plus, we have sedation options so you can be completely relaxed and oblivious to the necessary work we are performing in your mouth.
