Rebuilding a Strong Foundation for Long-Term Oral Health
Jawbone loss can occur after tooth loss, gum disease, or injury—and without treatment, it can affect your facial structure, bite stability, and eligibility for dental implants. At Studio Blu Dental in Highland, NY, Dr. Chuan offers advanced bone grafting procedures designed to restore lost bone and rebuild the foundation needed for future restorative care.
Proudly serving patients throughout Ulster County and the Hudson Valley, including Highland, New Paltz, Poughkeepsie, and nearby communities, our approach to bone grafting is precise, conservative, and carefully planned to support long-term oral health and natural aesthetics.

What is Bone Grafting?
Bone grafting is a procedure used to regenerate or replace lost jawbone using safe, biocompatible materials. Once placed, the graft stimulates your body’s natural healing response, encouraging new bone growth in areas where bone has deteriorated.
Bone grafting may be recommended to:
- Prepare the jaw for dental implants
- Preserve bone after a tooth extraction
- Restore bone lost due to periodontal disease
- Support facial structure and prevent a sunken appearance
Restoring bone not only improves function—it protects the long-term health and appearance of your smile.
Bone Grafting Procedures We Offer
Every bone grafting plan at Studio Blu Dental is guided by advanced digital imaging and tailored to your individual anatomy and treatment goals.
Socket Preservation
Performed at the time of tooth extraction to maintain bone volume and shape, helping preserve the site for a future dental implant.
Ridge Augmentation
Used when the jawbone has become too thin or narrow to support an implant. This procedure rebuilds width and height to restore proper structure.
Sinus Lift (Sinus Augmentation)
A specialized technique used when there isn’t enough bone height in the upper back jaw to support implants. The sinus membrane is gently lifted, and grafting material is placed to create adequate bone support.
What to Expect During the Bone Grafting Process
Comprehensive Evaluation
We begin with a detailed exam and 3D imaging to assess bone volume and determine the most appropriate grafting approach.
Precise Graft Placement
The grafting material is placed using gentle, minimally invasive techniques to promote predictable healing.
Healing & Regeneration
Over the following months, the graft integrates with your natural bone, strengthening the area for future treatment.
Next-Step Planning
Once healing is complete, we move forward with implants or other restorative care when appropriate.
