Bone grafting helps enhance bone growth in areas suffering from bone loss. Bone grafting materials are used to enhance new bone formation and stimulate natural bone growth.

  • Enhance stability of dental implants:

Bone grafting is used to enhance the stability of dental implants and provide a strong base for implanted teeth. Bone grafting is done in the jaws to enhance the bones surrounding dental implants and improve their stability.

  • Improve facial and jaw appearance:

Bone grafting can be used to improve facial and jaw appearance when there is obvious bone loss. It can help restore the natural volume and shape of the jaws and enhance facial features.

  • Increase chances of success for dental implants: Having sufficient healthy bone is crucial for dental implant success. Bone grafting can provide the necessary bone for dental implants and increase the chances of a successful procedure.

  • Compatibility and integration with the body:

Bone grafting materials with high biocompatibility are used to ensure good integration and avoid any negative reactions. The appropriate materials are carefully selected to ensure best outcomes and fewest complications.

 

In summary, bone grafting is a surgical procedure used to replace bone loss or enhance bone growth in a specific area. It is characterized by advantages such as enhancing bone growth, stability of dental implants, improving facial and jaw appearance.
