We finally felt convinced to get a smile makeover with dental implants.

Only to learn that our jawbone was unhealthy and that it needed additional bone grafting procedures to get it. Bone grafting for dental implants is a routine way to increase the quantity and quality of your jawbones. In case you are worried about the whole idea of a bone graft procedure for missing teeth, we’re here to support you in your smile journey.

What is bone grafting for dental implants?

The goal of bone grafting is to rebuild and strengthen the jawbone, laying the groundwork for dental implants.

When teeth are missing for an extended period of time, the bone that supports them may contract or weaken. The process of adding new material to a region to restore bone density and volume is known as bone grafting. Your own body, a donor, or synthetic substitutes are some of the possible sources of this graft material.

There will be enough bone for dental implants once the bone graft fuses with your natural bone to create a strong foundation.

Bone grafting for dental implants—the benefits

Bone grafting isn’t just about preparing for implants—it’s about getting your confidence to eat, speak and smile back, improving your overall oral health.

Ensures successful dental implants

A good stable foundation for implants in the jaw bone with successful bone grafting ensures treatment success. Those who were previously unable to get dental implants due to insufficient bone can now benefit from them.

Restores facial aesthetics

Bone grafting halts the bone loss and restores the natural shape of your gums. It can help to eliminate the typical ‘sunken’ facial appearance caused by multiple missing teeth.

Protects jawbone structure

Bone reconstruction prevents further degradation of the jaws and gums, preserving facial structure and appearance.

Restores oral function

This procedure allows you to chew and speak comfortably again. This improves your chewing ability, confidence in speaking and smiling, and overall oral health and function.

Tailored to your needs

Bone grafting procedures are highly personalised and specialised. There are several types of bone grafts available, and we can use the one that best meets your oral health requirements.

Is bone grafting for dental implants necessary?

Dental implants have to have a strong foundation in the jawbone for support. Without a certain height, width and volume of bone, implants may not stabilise for long and fail later. Here are some reasons why dental implant bone augmentation with grafting may be necessary:

  • Bone loss due to missing teeth: When you lose a tooth, the surrounding bone begins to shrink over time. It can deteriorate to a thin layer of bone 2-4 millimetres thick, which is insufficient for dental implant placement.
Taylored Dental Care
  • Gum disease: Prolonged, severe gum disease can cause a substantial loss of bone.
  • Trauma or injury to the jaw can weaken the bone structure.
  • Natural jawbone anatomy: Some people have thin or insufficient jawbones in specific parts of their mouth naturally.

Addressing these problems with bone grafts creates a solid foundation for dental implants to last a lifetime.

Is bone grafting painful?

No. We perform the procedure under local anaesthesia and offer sedation options for added comfort. Any subsequent discomfort is typically mild and brief and can be treated with over-the-counter medications.

How long does bone grafting take to heal?

Healing typically takes several months as the grafted bone integrates with your natural bone. We will closely monitor your progress during follow-up appointments.

Can everyone get a bone graft?

Most people are good candidates for bone grafting. We will assess your general and oral health during your consultation to ensure that the procedure is appropriate for you.

A bone graft typically has a simple and quick recovery time. Here’s what you can expect:

In the first few days, mild swelling or discomfort is normal; over-the-counter painkillers will help.

Eat soft foods instead of hard foods while your mouth heals; avoid strenuous activity including heavy weight lifting, long gym sessions, running, and contact sports.

Planned are follow-up visits to track your development and guarantee the correct integration of the graft. Most patients find the recovery process manageable.
