Characteristics of bone grafting
It is the technique used to replace the loss of dental bone, which is an oral problem that can have serious consequences for the person. Bone grafting has the following characteristics:
Importance
This is important in cases where it is necessary to ensure that the implant is correctly anchored inside the jawbone.
Biocompatible materials
All materials used for bone grafting are biocompatible with the human body.
Painless treatment
Bone grafting is performed under local anaesthesia so the patient will not feel any pain during the treatment.
Bone grafting
We have previously mentioned that bone grafting is a frequent intervention in people who need an implant and do not have sufficient bone. It is essential, in order for the treatment to be successful, to ensure that the implant is correctly attached to the inside of the jawbone. For this reason, the implantologist must take a first step before proceeding with the placement of the titanium screw. It is essential to make sure that the patient does not have this problem prior to the intervention.
The implant is anchored in the jawbone, and if the jawbone is too thin, it is very unlikely to give the screw a solid and durable bond. Therefore, it is ineffective to place an implant if the person does not have the required bone volume. This is when the dentist proceeds to bone grafting treatment to gain surface area vertically.
Why does bone loss occur?
Although the main reason for this jaw shortening is the lack of teeth, there are other factors that contribute to this problem.
- The presence of advanced periodontal disease leads to the presence of bacteria in the oral cavity. As time passes, solidified calculus reaches the root and alveolar bone, causing its gradual loss.
- An impact to the teeth may not only result in broken teeth, but may also eventually damage the nerve – causing it to calcify – and reduce the dental bone.
- Suffering from certain pathologies such as diabetes or osteoporosis makes the person more prone to suffer from maxillary bone loss.
- Bone needs dental stimulation for proper function.
EXPERTS IN SMILES
Solutions for all types of smiles
An essential method for recovering missing teeth and restoring a complete smile.
We design the ideal smile
At Clínica Torres we have more than 30 years of experience in dentistry. We are constantly evolving and applying the latest advances in dental prosthodontics.
We are aware that dental prostheses are an effective solution when our patients are missing one or more teeth. Our dental prostheses achieve and restore a guaranteed stability in order to achieve harmony, balance and a highly functional support. A free space in the mouth causes the bite pressure to exert greater forces on the other functional teeth.
At Clínica Torres we are characterised by our personalised treatment for each of our patients, always taking into account their needs and therefore each of our treatments are adapted to each person who comes to our clinic in search of the perfect smile.
