Bone Graft Cekmekoy

What is a bone graft?Bone grafting is a procedure performed to replace the bone lost in the jaw that anchors teeth using one or more different bone grafting options. Dental surgeries (also known as oral-maxillofacial surgeries) may require bone growth in the upper jaw, such as sinus augmentation or ridge augmentation.

What are dental implants?A dental implant is a titanium metal rod that is placed into the jawbone. It is used to support one or more false teeth. In practice, both the false teeth and their supporting rod are known as ‘implants’. It provides stable support for one or more artificial teeth. Dentures and bridges supported by implants won’t slip in your mouth, which is an important benefit when eating and speaking. This secure fit helps the dentures and the bridges feel more natural than conventional bridges and dentures.What are the advantages of dental implants?The existing prostheses of patients, especially those who have been edentate for many years, lose compatibility over time due to the constant change in the bones and begin to move and cause scars. As implant-supported prostheses are placed on a fixed foundation, they cannot move or be removed from the mouth. It can be applied to people who do not want removable prostheses or whose bone has lost its retention.
