BONE GRAFTING FOR IMPLANTS
Bone grafting is a surgical procedure that adds density and volume to the jawbone in areas where the bone may be naturally thinner or where bone loss has occurred. Bone grafts are often used to prepare the jaw for dental implants.
There are three main types of bone grafts:
Autogenous bone graft: The bone grafting material can be taken from another site in your body, known as an autogenous graft. The advantage of having this type of graft is that your body will readily accept it, and it should integrate well with your jawbone, but it does mean an additional procedure to harvest the bone from a suitable site.
Allograft or Xenograft bone graft: Alternatively, bone can be sourced from a donor, human (allograft) or animal (xenograft). It is quite usual to use donor bone, and there is no need to worry as the bone is treated and sterilized extensively to ensure it is completely safe for use.
Alloplast: Another alternative is to have a synthetic bone graft material, and this type of graft is called an alloplast. Synthetic bone grafting materials are extremely sophisticated and can often contain growth mediums to encourage your bone to deposit new bone cells onto the graft.
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) treatment is a treatment that uses platelets from your own blood to promote healing. PRP can be used in conjunction with bone grafting to help the bone graft heal faster and promote better tissue regeneration.
