Tooth Extraction & Bone Grafting

Remove a failing tooth and protect the bone beneath it in one visit, so replacing that tooth later stays an option.

When a tooth cannot be saved, removing it and placing a bone graft in the same visit preserves the ridge of bone that would otherwise shrink after extraction. Holding that bone volume matters because it keeps the shape of your jaw and leaves the door open for a dental implant later. This is often recommended for teeth that have had root canal treatment and no longer serve your health, even when they cause no pain.

Dr. Sahil Sawnani performs extractions and grafting with a focus on saving as much healthy tissue as possible. He completed gum graft and ridge augmentation training through the EM Academy and the Khouly Advanced Dental Institute, and he often uses platelet-rich fibrin, a concentrate made from your own blood, to support clot stability and healing at the site.

The work follows the standards set by founder Dr. Jill Rosellini Ombrello, who is SMART certified for safe removal of mercury fillings and accredited by the International Academy of Oral Medicine and Toxicology. Grafting materials are chosen for biocompatibility, and your recovery plan uses natural anti-inflammatory support so the extraction site and graft can heal on a strong base.
