Bone and Sinus Grafts Brentwood, Essex
Your Smile’s New Foundation
You need a strong and healthy jaw to give your dental implants maximum support. The pressure from biting and chewing can take its course, so the foundations of your smile must be strong. Unfortunately, when teeth are lost, resorption occurs, weakening the jaw and leading to bone deterioration.
When teeth are absent, the body removes minerals from the bone that once supported them, resulting in a thin and depleted jaw.
If you need dental implants but lack sufficient jaw support, a graft or sinus lift can stimulate regrowth and renew the bone’s strength.
BOOK CONSULTATIONUnderstanding Bone Grafting
Often referred to as “bone augmentation,” bone grafts rebuild diminished bone using small pieces of natural or synthetic bone placed onto the depleted area.
Over a few months, the additional bone fuses with your jaw, creating a sturdy foundation capable of supporting an implant.
Comparing Bone
Graft Types
There are several different bone graft procedures. An autograft uses pieces of bone harvested from elsewhere in your body. It fuses quickly because it’s a direct match to your existing bone.
Where it’s not possible to use an autograft, we can use a biocompatible synthetic material. This type of graft delivers excellent results but can take longer to bind to your jaw firmly.
Sinus lifts are specific grafts used on the upper jaw. The graft is placed near the back teeth between the upper jaw and sinus membrane, allowing us to place implants in your upper jaw.
Your Bone Graft
Before proceeding with your bone graft, we’ll take scans of your jaw to assess bone density.
When performing the graft, we’ll give an anaesthetic first so you feel comfortable throughout.
For an autograft procedure, we’ll carefully harvest a small amount of bone near the treatment area. Next, we’ll skillfully place it in position and seal the site.
This will take a few months to heal. We’ll check on your recovery process before booking you in for your smile-enhancing dental implant surgery.

Wow, what a great experience I have had a Smile HQ. All the staff are very welcoming and friendly, the clinic itself is spotless and it looks great. Pola was so lovely and I can’t believe how in a few hours he transformed my teeth. I am over the moon with the results. The man is an absolute genius at what he does and I couldn’t recommend him more, so professional and the best in the business. Thank you!
Couldn’t recommend Pola and his team enough. Pola is thorough and explains everything and makes you feel in safe hands. The girls are also amazing, massive thanks to Hannah for everything she helped me set my app up and the aftercare is amazing. Claire is so lovely and personable every visit and Sophie is brilliant during my sessions with Pola.
Receptionist Kiera is an absolute delight to talk to. So refreshing from your ordinary rude front of house receptionists, lovely attitude and very helpful.
