Bone Grafting Implant Process
-
Insufficient gum bone makes implant placement difficult
-
-
Bone graft to deficient area, cover with membrane, then suture
-
After bone formation is complete, connect the prosthesis
Bone Graft Implant Materials
-
Autologous bone
Harvests the patient’s own bone,
so there are no side effects
and adaptability is excellent.
-
Allograft
Transplanting donor bone preserves
growth factors and proteins, providing
strong regeneration and
biocompatibility.
-
Xenograft
Material processed from animal bone.
Noted for rapid regeneration potential.
-
Synthetic bone
Synthetic material used to regenerate or
repair defects, gradually replaced
by natural bone over time.
Precautions after bone
grafting and implants
More extensive grafting can cause more swelling.
Avoid touching the surgical site as much as possible.
Avoid strenuous exercise for about one week.
Do not spit postoperative blood or saliva; swallow instead.
Get ample rest on the day of surgery.
Avoid alcohol and smoking for about a month.
