Providing Support for a Confident Smile
Missing teeth can affect more than just your appearance—they can also impact your ability to eat, speak, and enjoy daily life. At Lakeshore Dental, our team offers advanced dental implant procedures to help patients in Virginia Beach achieve a strong, healthy, and natural-looking smile. Under the expertise of Dr. Amrish Patel, DMD, you can explore advanced solutions such as bone grafting and sinus lifts that make dental implants possible, even if you were previously told they weren't an option.
Why Choose Advanced Dental Implant Procedures?
Dental implants remain one of the most effective and reliable ways to replace missing teeth. However, not every patient has the right bone structure to support them immediately. With procedures such as bone grafting and sinus lifts, we can restore the strength of your jawbone and create a stable foundation for long-lasting dental implants.
At Lakeshore Dental, our advanced technology, years of clinical expertise, and patient-focused approach ensure safe, predictable results.
Bone Grafting for Dental Implants
Restoring Strength to the Jawbone
For patients missing teeth in the lower jaw, a bone graft may be necessary before implant placement. During this procedure, bone minerals are placed in areas where the jawbone has weakened or deteriorated. This process rebuilds the strength and density needed to support implants securely.
Depending on your treatment plan, bone grafting materials may include:
Dentin grafts- Animal bone (such as pig or cow)
- Human bone (from another area of your body or donor bone)
After the procedure, healing time is required to allow the bone to integrate and become strong enough for implants. Once fully healed, our team will carefully plan and place your dental implants for a secure and natural restoration.
Benefit: Bone grafting ensures your implants have the solid foundation needed for long-term success, reducing the risk of shifting or implant failure.

Sinus Lifts for the Upper Jaw
Creating Space and Support for Implants
When replacing teeth in the upper jaw, there may not be enough bone available to hold an implant due to the location of the maxillary sinuses. A sinus lift addresses this concern by gently raising the sinus membrane and placing bone minerals into the hollowed area.
This added bone structure allows for safe and stable implant placement. Over time, the bone grows and integrates, creating the strong support needed for long-lasting implant restorations.
Benefit: Sinus lifts expand treatment possibilities, making dental implants an option for patients who once believed they were not candidates.
