Do I Need Bone Graft?
Bone grafting for dental implants is needed when there isn’t enough healthy jawbone to support an implant, often due to tooth loss or prior extractions. At 5 Minute Implants in Plano, TX, we primarily use an advanced socket preservation technique at the time of extraction, placing bone material and collagen plugs to minimize bone loss and support proper healing. This approach helps maintain bone structure, reduces the need for future grafting, and creates a strong foundation for successful dental implants.
Am I a Candidate for a Single Dental Implant?
We find that we are able to help about 95% of the patients that walk through our doors. There is a small percentage of patients that just don't have any bone to work with, but that number is only about 5%. The 3D CBCT scan will allow us to see exactly how much bone you have.Even if you’ve been told you’re not a candidate elsewhere, a second opinion can make all the difference.
