If you’ve ever been told you’re not a good candidate for implants because your jawbone isn’t strong enough, we have some good news for you. Using a bone graft procedure, we can strengthen your jaw and make it possible for you to get implants and new teeth.

Best group ever. Kind and considerate !
The comprehensive exam was much more detailed and thorough than most dental exams I’ve had, but everything was explained in simple, easy-to-understand language throughout my visit. I really appreciated that because it gave me a clear understanding of how my teeth are doing and which areas need attention or repair. I was also impressed by the technology used throughout the exam. The equipment seemed very modern, and it was genuinely interesting to see what the different cameras and imaging tools could reveal. I especially noticed how much more comfortable the intraoral cameras and imaging process felt compared with what I remember from dental visits as a child. Both Heather at the front desk and Heather, the hygienist, were very kind, professional, and thorough throughout my visit. Overall, I left feeling informed and confident about the condition of my teeth and the next steps in my dental care.
Great staff and never long to wait. Would highly recommend!

I’ve been going to this office for about 15 years and I’ll never leave. Dr. Morgan and now Dr. Bickler have always been very straight with me about what’s going on in my mouth and what real oral health entails. Kelsey has been a dental hygienist I work with since I started going here and is the only dental hygienist I have ever had that has really seemed to care about what’s going on with me and understand how to motivate me to do better with preventative maintenance. I can’t recommend them enough!

Kelsey is the best. She always takes time to explain everything and check in during cleanings. I have seen her for years and never had a bad experience. She’s just a lovely person. Dr Bickler is also great. He is always very professional and kind. He too always takes time to explain everything which I appreciate.

A bone graft builds up bone in your jaw after you have lost teeth. Bone loss is a consequence of losing teeth because the tooth root is no longer there to stimulate the bone beneath it. We’ll put a special material in the socket and cover it to safeguard the area. Over time, it will become a component of your bone as it stimulates new development. Because your bone is stronger, you can become a better prospect for dental implants.
Bone grafts are necessary if your jawbone is lacking sufficient strength or depth to support dental implants. In these cases, we can perform a graft to strengthen the bone and get it ready for implants. Bone grafts can make you a good candidate for dental implants if you’ve been told that implants weren’t a possibility for you.
Bone grafts are safe when they are performed by a highly skilled dentist like Dr. Bickler. Dentists need training in this procedure and must do the proper screening before recommending it. Even so, it is not a complex procedure, and it’s commonplace at our office. We can discuss any possible side effects with you during the planning stages.
We can see you as soon as tomorrow!
