Bone grafting for

Dental implants

When bone grafting is required ?

If your jawbone isn't thick enough or is too soft, you may need bone grafting before you can have dental implant surgery. That's because the powerful chewing action of your mouth exerts great pressure on your bone, and if it can't support the implant, the surgery likely would fail. A bone graft can create a more solid base for the implant.

When bone grafting is required ?

With bone grafting, a piece of bone is removed from another part of your jaw or your body — your hip, for example — and transplanted to your jawbone. It may take up to nine months for the transplanted bone to grow enough new bone to support a dental implant. In some cases, you may need only minor bone grafting, which can be done at the same time as the implant surgery. The condition of your jawbone determines how you proceed.

Dental implant surgery is usually an outpatient surgery performed in stages:

Your damaged tooth is removed.Your jawbone is prepared for surgery, a process that may involve bone grafting.After your jawbone heals, your oral surgeon places the dental implant metal post in your jawbone.You go through a healing period that may last several months.Your oral surgeon places the abutment — an extension of the implant metal post — followed by your new artificial tooth (crown).

After surgery :

Whether you have dental implant surgery in one stage or multiple stages, you may experience some of the typical discomforts associated with any type of dental surgery, such as:Swelling of your gums and faceBruising of your skin and gumsPain at the implant siteMinor bleedingIf swelling, discomfort or any other problem gets worse in the days after surgery, contact your oral surgeon.
