Bone grafting in the case of dental implantation
Osteoplasty is a new trend in dentistry, which, thanks to modern technology, has developed in parallel with the development of implantology. In the case of dental implantation, there may be a lack of bone tissue. This is one of the main problems with dentures. Nowadays, however, it is easy to solve - dentists perform an operation to compensate for the lack of bone, or use biological stimulation to regenerate bone tissue.
Bone grafting: indications and contraindications
It is an innovative complex for bone tissue augmentation in the area where a tooth is missing. The operation is performed before a row of roots is transplanted to improve healing and good fixation of the implant itself. The tissue heals quickly. This complex treatment can restore a beautiful smile even if the bone changes are advanced and severe.
The main indication for bone tissue augmentation for incisor implantation is its deficiency. Sufficient bone width allows the implant to be placed safely. Augmentation increases the longevity and functionality of the artificial molar and the rate at which the pin engages in the surrounding tissue depends on the procedure. If a person's jawbone is severely depleted, it will not be able to withstand the stresses for long.
Osteoplasty is a complex procedure and, like any surgical procedure, has a number of contraindications:
- If the patient has concomitant dental diseases.
- Chronic abscess in the acute stage.
- Oncological conditions and immune deficiency.
- Osteoporosis of the jaw.
- Pathologies of the cardiovascular system.
- Pregnant women, breastfeeding period.
The Denta-PRO clinic will help with bone tissue augmentation in the case of implantation at an affordable price, regardless of the complexity of the depletion and condition of the bone tissue.
Bone tissue atrophy
The tooth consists of two main elements: the crown and the root, which is fixed in the alveolar process. Bone deficiency is associated with the destruction or removal of the premolars. The alveolar process provides nutrition to the bones of the jaw and the nearby tissues, the volume depends on many conditions, one of which is the chewing pressure.
When removed, the pressure is decreased and bone tone is reduced, resulting in a decrease in the height/thickness of the tissue. There are three types of atrophy: vertical - bone loss in height, horizontal - bone thinning in width, and combined - simultaneous bone loss in height and width.
If a patient is diagnosed with any type of atrophy, it is an indication for dental bone tissue augmentation.
Types of osteoplasty
The main aim of plastic surgery is to create a space in the tissue for the placement of an artificial incisor. Depending on the variant and the particular situation, the restoration of bone tissue in the tooth is done as a separate operation or in combination with an implant procedure.
Today, there are 4 different methods of enlarging the dental bone for implants.
Splitting of bone ridge. Appointed if the canine is thinning.
With this type of operation, the artificial crown is put in place 3 months (up to 6 months if possible) after the plastic surgery, by which time the regeneration of the bone tissue is successfully completed. The main advantages are short regeneration of tissue, specialists do not need to take a bone part for plastics, they can perform osteoplasty and placement of implants in one surgery.
In cases of severe bone tissue thinning and all kinds of resorptions, the doctor prescribes a surgical operation by the method of transplantation of a bone block. The artificial tooth is placed within six months, a maximum of one year after the surgical procedure.
The main advantage: faster and more effective osseointegration of the implant, fast tissue healing.
Directed regeneration method for minor deficits of the alveolar process (vertical or horizontal). In this method, no donor material needs to be taken and additional surgery can be avoided. It is possible to perform plastic surgery with the insertion bone implant as part of a single operation.
If it is necessary to increase the volume of bone tissue in the growth area of small root teeth or molars, a sinus lift is indicated. It is also used for correcting the upper jaw. The cost of bone tissue augmentation in the case of crown implantation, a period of reconstruction and tissue healing depend on the sinus inlay subspecies. There are only two of these: open and closed.
If you are scheduled for dental bone augmentation in the case of implants, the cost is calculated based on several factors.The degree of atrophy of the jawbone, the condition of the tissue, the technique used to make the bone plate and the type of bone substitute.
Bone substitutes
For bone tissue augmentation methods in the case of incisor implantation, pathological changes in the jaw, bone-replacement substances of different origins are chosen.
With the development of technology, there are bone tissue implantation methods using materials of biological origin, but also in the form of granules, membranes or prefabricated blocks (synthetic substances are used in the manufacturing process).
The main substances used for jawbone replacement are allogenic - another person can become a donor; autologous - material is taken from a patient; alloplastic - bone material of artificial origin, calcium phosphate is used in the production process; xenogenic - the substitute takes the form of bone blocks or granules of animal origin; collagen membranes - an option for accelerating bone tissue growth or restoration, collagen is also of animal origin.
The modern Denta-PRO dental clinic guarantees a complete diagnosis and individual help in choosing the method and material for the plastic surgery and restoration of the charmed smile.
At the first consultation, the doctor will tell you in detail about which teeth need to be treated first, about the condition of your gums and about which design you need to choose in order to fill in the missing teeth.
About what actions and manipulations need to be carried out. Learn how to take good care of your mouth so you don't have to go to the dentist as often as possible.
After discussing the above aspects, your dentist will draw up a treatment plan, guide you by the stages, timing, cost of the upcoming treatment, make, if necessary, computer diagnostics of the teeth and make an appointment for you at a convenient time for you to start treatment.
It is worth restoring a lost tooth as early as possible, because delaying such a process can lead to unpleasant health consequences and undesirable costs in the future.
Patients who seek help for tooth loss too late unwittingly start the process of destruction of other adjacent teeth, because the load during chewing is not evenly distributed.
Dental implantation is one of the most reliable and effective procedures that allows you to restore one or more teeth.
The method of dental implantation is now very popular, because it helps patients to restore lost teeth both in the upper and lower jaws without grinding pine teeth, which is always carried out during prosthetics (crowns).
With implantation, the number of lost teeth does not matter. Dental implantation is considered to be the only right way out of care for everyone, because the healing rate of implants today is over 99%!
