Types of Bone Grafting at Red Rose Dentistry Hamilton
Socket Preservation (Alveolar Ridge Preservation)
Performed immediately after a tooth extraction to preserve the bone socket for future implant placement. Without socket preservation, the bone socket collapses inward by 25–40% within the first 6 months after extraction — potentially requiring larger (and more expensive) ridge augmentation later.
- Cost: $500–$900 (often done same-appointment as extraction)
- Healing: 3–4 months before implant placement
- Best for: Planned implant sites; preventing bone loss at extraction
Ridge Augmentation (Lateral or Vertical)
When bone volume has already been lost (due to tooth loss, infection, or trauma), ridge augmentation rebuilds the bone to the volume needed for implant placement.
- Cost: $800–$1,500
- Healing: 4–6 months before implant placement
- Best for: Sites where tooth loss was not immediately followed by bone preservation
Sinus Lift (Sinus Augmentation)
When upper back teeth are missing, the maxillary sinus often drops down into the space where the roots used to be — leaving insufficient bone height for upper posterior implants. A sinus lift adds bone below the sinus floor, creating the height needed for safe implant placement.
- Cost: $1,500–$3,000
- Healing: 6–9 months before implant placement
- Best for: Upper posterior (molar/premolar) implants with insufficient sinus clearance
Do You Need a Bone Graft Before Implants?
The only way to know definitively is a CBCT (cone beam CT) scan, which provides a 3D view of bone volume, density, and the location of anatomical structures (sinus, nerve). At your free implant consultation, Dr. Khakani reviews CBCT imaging (taken when clinically indicated) and tells you exactly whether grafting is required and what type.
Many patients are surprised to find they do NOT need bone grafting — particularly when the implant site had teeth recently extracted, or when bone volume has been maintained. All-on-4 is specifically designed to avoid bone grafting in most cases by using angled implants to utilize available bone.
