Bone graft implants

What is a bone graft implant?

A bone graft implant is a procedure in which, when there is not enough jawbone, the missing area is supplemented with bone to ensure secure fixation of the implant.

For an implant to be firmly fixed, enough bone is needed. If there is not enough bone, fixation becomes unstable and the success rate decreases.

This is carried out under an accurate diagnosis through precise imaging after visiting the clinic.

Why are bone graft implants needed?

1. When bone gradually disappears after a tooth has been missing for a long time

2. When the bone has become weakened due to gum disease (such as periodontitis)

3. When the jawbone has been damaged by a traffic accident or injury

In particular, people whose tooth loss has been left untreated for a long time and whose jawbone volume has decreased often require bone grafting during #implant treatment.

The bone graft implant procedure is carried out in a manner similar to a general implant procedure.

1. Consultation and examination
2. Implant procedure and bone graft procedure
3. Recovery period
4. Implant placement

What are the advantages of bone graft implants?

They increase the stability of the implant and improve long-term success rates.

They can restore natural tooth function and appearance.

How to care for yourself after a bone graft implant

For 1 to 2 days after the implant procedure, it is advisable to use cold compresses to reduce swelling and pain.

Even after the implant procedure, you should brush just as well as you would with natural teeth, and if you continue to manage it carefully with dental floss and interdental brushes,

you can use the implant stably for a long time.

If, after the initial diagnosis, you are told that a bone graft implant is necessary,

please choose a clinic with extensive experience and a long history of stable operation and receive treatment there.

Number of implant placements

For those who need implants, we recommend receiving treatment as early as possible. If a missing tooth is left untreated for a long time, it can lead to loss of the jawbone and even changes in appearance.
