Bone Augmentation
Why is bone augmentation necessary in dentistry?
Bone augmentation is key to the successful placement of dental implants. It provides the necessary bone volume, creating a stable platform for implant placement. This is particularly important if the bone has atrophied due to prolonged tooth absence or after tooth extraction. We offer a unique technology that allows the use of your own teeth to create a bone graft.
How does it work?
Step 1: Diagnosis and Planning
The first step is a comprehensive diagnosis. We analyze the condition of your bone tissue and create an individualized treatment plan.
Step 2: Preparation for the Procedure
Before augmentation, we thoroughly prepare the area for bone tissue growth to ensure the maximum effectiveness of the procedure.
Step 3: Using Your Own Tooth for Bone Augmentation
Extracted wisdom teeth or other teeth that need to be removed are cleaned of decay, tartar, and plaque. The teeth are divided into several parts and placed in a special device called the Tooth Transformer. This device grinds the teeth and, through a chemical reaction, transforms them into a bone graft, which is ideal for augmentation.
Step 4: Bone Tissue Growth
Using the obtained bone graft, we augment the bone tissue. The material created from your own teeth integrates perfectly with your natural bone tissue, creating a strong and stable foundation for future implants.
Step 5: Implant Placement
If the bone defect is small, we can perform augmentation and implant placement simultaneously. In cases of more significant bone deficiency, implant placement is done after the bone tissue has fully healed.
Step 6: Healing and Recovery
After the procedure, it is important to provide proper care and time for healing so that the new bone material successfully integrates.
Advantages of Our Method
- Strength and Durability: Bone tissue created from your own teeth provides a reliable foundation for implants.
