Will dental implants make loss jaw bone grow?

sonia2000
I am 26, i had second upper left molar extracted 10 years ago I had all 4 wisdom teeths extracted as a kid.The side of my face where i am missing the molar is a bit thinner i think due loss bone I want to get implant now, dentist say he wont do bone graft for me as i have enough bone to get the implant. But i want to have same amount of bone on both sides to look more symmetrical ,will the jaw bone i lost grow back on its own once i get the implant?Will the implant stimulate the bone to grow?
