Looking to replace a missing tooth with a dental implant? If so, our dentist will check to see if your jawbone is thick enough to support this restoration. If not, Dr. Dhaval Shah may recommend performing a bone graft as the first step toward your new and improved smile. During this procedure, we will safely administer a type of sedation to ease any discomfort.
