Bone grafting is a surgical procedure that is used to ensure that the quantity of bone required for dental treatment is sufficient.
Implant treatment requires a sufficient quantity of bone to hold the implant securely. Jaw injuries, loss of teeth or developmental problems can all lead to an unsatisfactory amount of bone, which makes surgical intervention difficult or impossible. Bone grafting is carried out either before or during the implant surgery.
There are several different bone grafting procedures used by Forest&Ray:
Once the jaw has been re-built it takes anywhere between 3 and 12 months before an implant can be fitted.
Bone grafting is advised on by the dentist who will arrange for an X-ray and/or dental CT scan in case of insufficient quantity of bone.
