​When a tooth becomes mobile, the surrounding bone can undergo loss or destruction, complicating future implant treatment. In such cases, bone regeneration techniques are necessary to rebuild the deficient bone before implant placement. These techniques are applied both after tooth extraction to preserve the bone substrate and in spaces around the implants.

​Various factors, such as periodontitis, caries, failed endodontic treatment, fractures, or accidents, can lead to problematic teeth and potential loss. A thorough assessment by a qualified dentist with expertise in dental implantology is crucial. Techniques for increasing bone height and thickness may involve autogenous grafts from the chin or the posterior area of the lower jaw. Depending on the location and size of the deficit, ALLOGENEIC grafts (from human bone banks) or XENOGENEIC grafts (from bovine, porcine, or equine sources) may be used. In cases of advanced bone absorption, bone may be harvested from the iliac crest.

​Today, in addition to autogenous bone, biomaterials such as synthetic bone (alloplastic graft) or bovine graft (allogeneic) can be utilized with great success. These biomaterials, typically in the form of granules, are safe and easy to use. The choice of material depends on the extent of bone loss and the judgment and experience of the specialized dentist. Bone regeneration is a significant aspect of dental implantology, and we are available during your clinical examination we analyze and discuss with you, your specific needs.

​In many cases, Bone Regeneration Membranes are employed on top of the grafts to protect them from soft tissues invasion during healing. These membranes are secured in place with special fixing pins.

​In the upper jaw, techniques such as closed sinus lift or open sinus lift may be employed. During these procedures, a bone regeneration biomaterial and membrane are placed in a shaped area of the sinus, promoting the formation of new bone that can eventually support implants after a few months of healing.
