Bone Grafting

A Strong Foundation for Your Implants

Bone grafting rebuilds your jawbone so it can successfully support a dental implant, even if you have been told you don’t have enough bone.

Why Bone Grafting?

Making implants possible again

Some procedures, like implants, cannot be completed when there isn’t enough bone in the treatment area. Bone grafting regenerates bone, increases its stability, and strengthens your dental structure.

It often comes before treatments such as implants, crowns, and bridges. Dr. Advani has years of training in bone grafting and performs grafts and sinus lifts right here in our office.

  • Makes you a candidate for implants

  • Helps keep your facial structure intact

Your Implant Surgeon

Implants placed in-house by Dr. Advani

Most dentists refer implant surgery elsewhere. Dr. Vishal Advani places and restores implants himself, right here in our Elk Grove Village office, so your care stays in one familiar place from consultation to final smile.

He founded the Advani Implant Institute, where he teaches other dentists advanced implant surgery through live-patient training.

Guided Tissue Regeneration

Supporting bone, gums, and your appearance

Guided tissue regeneration uses barrier membranes to promote the natural growth of bone and gum tissue, which supports implant success and overall oral health.

The bone in your jaw and face also supports your appearance. Bone and tooth loss can make the face look sunken and aged, so rebuilding bone helps keep your facial structure intact.
