Bone Grafting at Apollo Dental Clinic, Suchitra, Hyderabad
Losing a tooth can lead to more than just a gap in your smile—it can also cause gradual bone loss in your jaw. When there isn’t enough bone to support a dental implant or other restorations, bone grafting becomes a crucial step. It helps rebuild and strengthen your jawbone, making it suitable for long-lasting dental solutions.
We offer precise and safe bone grafting procedures tailored to each patient’s needs to ensure the best outcomes for implant placement and overall oral health.
What Is Bone Grafting in Dentistry?
Bone grafting is a minor surgical procedure where new bone material is placed in areas where bone loss has occurred. The graft material stimulates natural bone regeneration and strengthens the jaw to support dental implants or bridges.
The grafted bone can be taken from your own body, a donor source, animal-derived material, or a synthetic substitute—depending on the case and your comfort.
When Is Bone Grafting Needed?
- Your jawbone is too thin or soft for implants
- You’ve had teeth missing for a long time
- Gum disease or trauma has caused bone loss
- You want to restore your jaw’s structure before dentures or bridges
- You need sinus lift or ridge augmentation procedures
Types of Dental Bone Grafts
- Autograft – Bone taken from your own body, typically the chin or hip.
- Allograft – Bone sourced from a human donor, treated for safety.
- Xenograft – Bone from animal sources (commonly bovine), processed for biocompatibility.
- Alloplast – Synthetic materials that promote bone growth.
Steps in the Bone Grafting Procedure
- Diagnosis and Imaging – We begin with digital scans and X-rays to assess the extent of bone loss.
- Treatment Planning – Based on your condition, we select the most appropriate graft type and location.
- Graft Placement – Under local anaesthesia, the graft is carefully inserted into the area of bone deficiency.
- Healing and Bone Integration – The grafted site is stitched and monitored. Natural bone fuses with the graft over several months.
- Follow-Up for Implant Placement – Once healed, your jaw is ready for implants or further restorative procedures.
Benefits of Bone Grafting
- Enables safe and stable implant placement
- Restores natural jaw structure and facial profile
- Prevents further bone deterioration
- Enhances denture or bridge support
- Long-term improvement in oral health and appearance
