What exactly is a dental bone graft?

Dental bone grafts are parts of the bones in the mouth or body (such as the skull, pelvic crest, or tibia) that are taken and used to repair defective bones in the jaws. Generally, our staff always tries to take the implant through the mouth (be it upper or lower jaw) and to supplement the amount, if incomplete, with implants similar in structure to human bone, simultaneously functional and esthetic results, without the risk of rejection. Being heavier, the out-of-mouth transplants are only preferred when a large portion of bone is missing.

Our oral and maxillofacial surgeon can repair large gaps of soft and hard tissues with implants he takes from other parts of the body and puts wherever the lack is with the help of a microscope and with great results. Due to years of experience in intraoral reconstructive surgery, he can achieve placing the appropriate implant in areas with diminished or low bone and create stable support for the patient’s dental restoration. With the correct design, the bones can be placed quickly and result in immediate improvement in chewing and speech.

How does the bone graft work?

The main goal of bone grafts and directed tissue regeneration besides replacing the lost bone with a foreign implant is helping the body rebuild its bone to replace the lost part of the jawbone.

The bone graft itself is the skeleton on which the new bone is built and emplaced into. Normally, our bodies gradually decompose the bone graft and with their building materials create a new bone of their own.

Directed tissue regeneration is achieved by using a peculiar membrane that isolates the zone where the bone is created. Meanwhile, the substances which it is saturated with play the role of activators of bone formation, aiding and accelerating the natural process.

Who needs bone grafting/ When does it become a necessity?

Whoever has bone loss in their jaw has the necessity of a dental bone graft. The process of bone grafting is an absolute necessity when you are:

  • Having a tooth extracted.
  • Needing to rebuild the jaw before getting dentures.
  • Have areas of bone loss due to periodontal disease.

To be acknowledged: a bone graft is a routine procedure for stabilizing bone tissue in the jaw. The process includes: making a small hole in the patient’s jaw to hold the implant, which is a small titanium member that anchors the denture in place. For this procedure to be complete, the bones in the jaw should be wide and firm, enough to hold the implant still.

Bone grafting is normally recommended when the patient has had a jaw injury or has a tooth decayed. In such cases, the bone tissues may have been lost as a result of atrophy and absorption. When the jaw bone is atrophied or not strong enough, the pressure applied on the jaw by repetitive chewing can develop into a damaged dental implant and increase the risk of dental implant failure.

Your dentist will suggest the idea of a bone graft whenever he thinks that there are not enough bone tissues to support dental implants. Depending on the severity of the natural jaw injury, some patients might even be candidates for synthetic bone graft material.

Which are the types of bone grafts?

When talking about bone grafting you should know that there exist four different types of bone grafts:

  • Autografts- which are the ones that use bone issues obtained from the patient’s body.
  • Allografts- which come from another human donor.
  • Xenografts- which use inorganic parts of animal bones.
  • Alloplasts- which are made from hydroxyapatite (a bone mineral mixed with materials such as calcium).

What does the bone graft procedure include?

Bone graft is what they call a daily routine at our clinic.

Before the surgery, we apply intravenous anesthesia to prevent any pain. Our dentists clean the area in which the surgery will be performed and make an incision through the gum tissue to expose the area to the bone system. A piece of bone tissue or a piece of compounded bone tissue is placed between the two parts of the bone that needs to be joined.

Please do note that:

  1. The healing process requires 3 to 6 months, for the ossification to be complete.
  2. The dental implant can only be placed in the second year and the healing process takes several weeks to allow the jaw bone to regenerate.

At our clinic, we make it possible to keep losing dental implants to a minimum. That is precisely why we follow dental protocols and practices from the best dentists around the world.

What happens postoperatively- after getting bone grafts?

Despite being time-consuming, bone grafts are a crucial part and a necessity for any implantology process. The following of the surgery is accompanied by discomfort, swelling, or bruising of the gums or skin and minor bleeding.

Nevertheless, these common side effects are quickly dropped. Adding to these you should also know that there are dietary restrictions to be followed, such as eating only soft food while healing, after every stage of bone grafting or implantation.
