Bone Grafting

At Port Dental Care, our bone grafting procedures are designed to enhance the stability and strength of your jawbone, creating a solid foundation for dental implants and other restorative treatments. Bone grafting involves placing graft material into areas of weakened or insufficient bone, which then integrates with your natural bone over time, improving its density and volume.
