In recent decades, great progress has been made in all areas of dentistry, particularly in prosthodontics. Today, alongside fillings or crowns, it is quite natural for someone to have missing teeth replaced with implants.<\/p>\n

A highly advantageous alternative, as implants are not only extremely durable but also address both aesthetic and functional problems. However, few realise that there are conditions for the successful application of this technology.<\/p>\n

One such factor is the presence of sufficient bone stock, which is a common problem. If there is insufficient bone stock, bone augmentation must be performed, after which the implant can be placed. However, the patient must expect a longer process, as bone formation must first be ensured, and only then, after providing adequate support, can the tooth implant be carried out.<\/p>\n

Before we go into more detail about methods of promoting bone formation, it is worth briefly considering what causes bone loss.<\/p>\n

Dentistry<\/a>From this perspective, the loss of bone tissue is most often caused by the removal of a tooth for some reason. Due to the missing tooth, the gum remains empty, meaning there is no need for the bone to be maintained in the same quantity and quality as with an existing tooth.<\/p>\n

This is because the gum surface in question is not subjected to stress during chewing, causing the underlying bone to weaken and resorb.<\/p>\n

It is important to note that certain illnesses can also negatively affect bone density deficiencies. Periodontal disease, for example, is particularly common, as are genetic factors such as having a jawbone that is too thin and narrow.<\/p>\n

It's interesting that after the implant has been placed, there's no longer any need to fear the development of bone loss \u2013 or its potential recurrence \u2013 because the jawbone regains its function, takes on a role in chewing again, meaning it receives the load it needs to maintain its condition.<\/p>\n

\nWhy and when is it necessary to promote bone formation during implant placement?<\/h2>\n

Maintaining healthy gums and teeth is important in itself for the quality of chewing and to keep your jawbone strong. However, it is also essential when implants are needed, as the bone structure provides the proper support for the procedure.<\/p>\n

If this bone stock is damaged for some reason, or its quantity and quality are insufficient, then the first step in implant placement is always bone grafting.<\/p>\n

In most cases, this is sufficient in itself, but one must always account for other changes as well. Such as periodontal disease, where the tooth bone begins to decay in a crater-like manner. This needs to be alleviated with a separate procedure around the tooth, which we call regenerative flap surgery.<\/p>\n

Although the very names of these two procedures often cause alarm in patients, with modern local anaesthesia, they can be carried out with minimal discomfort.<\/p>\n
