Jawbone Loss & Deterioration

Bone grafting is a surgical solution for jawbone loss and deterioration. The most common causes of jawbone loss are tooth extractions without replacement, periodontal disease, dentures/bridgework, trauma, misalignment, osteomyelitis, tumors, developmental deformities, or sinus deficiencies.

Missing teeth cause the jawbone to atrophy and become absorbed by the body. Bone grafting while removing a tooth is designed to preserve the natural bone contours and preserve the socket. If a tooth has been missing for an extended period, we may recommend a bone graft to strengthen the jaw. A bone graft by our oral surgical specialist will help regenerate the bone necessary for a long-lasting implant.

For Dental Implants

Dental Implants require adequate bone density and volume for successful implant placement. We use modern bone grafting techniques to augment weakened jaws and bone structures in preparation for dental implants.

Sinus Lift

Sinus lift/augmentation raises the sinus floor to allow for new bone formation in the upper jaw. Bone is added between the jaw and maxillary sinuses to repair damage from periodontal disease often for the proper placement of implants. We use minimally invasive techniques to perform a sinus augmentation to help ensure the stability and durability of your new tooth.

“absolutely stunning”

I have had so many dental work and procedures over the past two decades. I can't believe I could say this about any dentist but Dr Olin is an exception. His work is absolutely stunning. Two teeth implants with sinus lift surgery and bone graft done in 3 hrs without being put to sleep. I basically watched him doing his art the entire time, very calm, confident and he is definitely the best. I already recommended him to 2 of my friends and my husband getting their implants. The recovery was very quick and very little pain and bleeding. Such a great experience. I am glad I found him.
