Regain a Strong, Healthy Smile Here
Were you told by another dentist that you’re not eligible for dental implants? That won’t happen here. Practicing since 1975, Dr. John Barksdale has extensive training and experience in all dental implant-related treatments and performs them all in one convenient location. He has dual certifications—from the International College of Oral Implantologists and the American Board of Oral Implantology. He’s also a graduate and Fellow of Misch International Implant Institute, among the world’s top implant education institutions. Dr. Barksdale can prepare you for the restored dental function and esthetics of implants with bone grafting in Baton Rouge, LA.
What Is Bone Grafting?
Your teeth are anchored in your jawbone and help keep it healthy through the stimulation of chewing. When you lose a tooth, the underlying jawbone can recede, compromising other teeth and creating an unhealthy sunken facial appearance. Dr. Barksdale uses bone grafting to reestablish your jawbone volume and strength and qualify you for dental implants. For this he places a small amount of bone material in the recessed areas. Over time this will grow together with the existing bone, making your jaw strong enough to support implants. Dr. Barksdale offers multiple types of bone grafting, depending on your needs.
