You've finally decided to replace a missing tooth.
Then you hear:
"You may not have enough bone."
It can sound like the door to dental implants has immediately closed.
Not necessarily.
Dental implants rely on the jawbone for support. When significant bone has been lost, bone grafting may sometimes be considered to rebuild or improve the area before implant treatment.
Harder Dental offers both dental implants and bone-grafting services as part of its restorative care. Harder Dental Corporation
But this isn't a one-size-fits-all procedure.
The right plan depends on your bone structure, health history, location of the missing tooth, and clinical evaluation.
That's why the conversation should begin with diagnosis, not assumptions.
Missing a tooth for years doesn't automatically mean you're out of options.
