McLean, VA Dental Bone Grafting & Tooth Extractions Prepare your smile for dental implant success
Rebuild what was lost
Suffering from advanced gum disease or other damage? Tooth extraction may be the best solution for preserving your oral health. However, removing a tooth can impact your health in other ways.
Your tooth roots stimulate the supporting jawbone, helping maintain your ability to chew, speak, and more. When a tooth is removed, the jaw loses this important stimulation and can dissolve. This not only puts surrounding teeth at risk but also makes it impossible to place a dental implant and restore your smile.
Bone grafting reinforces the structural integrity of your jawbone and prepares the area for a dental implant. At Sculpt Center for Implants & Periodontics, we make this a seamless process, performing extractions and bone grafts in the same visit in our McLean VA office.

Dr. Hasan may recommend a bone graft if…
- You need a tooth removed: To prevent your jawbone from weakening and to maintain its shape.
- You’re getting a dental implant: To ensure there’s enough strong bone to support the implant.
- A tooth has been missing for a while: To rebuild bone strength and structure before any further dental work.

What is bone grafting?
Bone grafting is a procedure to replace or augment bone in the jaw, often required for dental implants or addressing bone deficiencies. It ensures a stable foundation for dental procedures.Do I need a bone graft?
If you’ve lost a tooth or a tooth has been extracted, your jawbone might start to weaken. Bone grafting helps keep the bone strong and shaped correctly, especially if you want to get dental implants later. This procedure adds new bone to your jaw, making it strong enough to support an implant. If you’re thinking about dental implants, a bone graft might be a necessary first step.What happens if I get an implant without a bone graft?
Without the support of a strong and healthy bone structure, a dental implant is more likely to fail long term.
