ADVANCED BLOCK GRAFTS EDGWARE
A bone block graft is a specialised surgical procedure designed to restore the volume and density of a jawbone that has thinned or deteriorated over time. At Care Dental Smile, we use this advanced technique to create a solid, secure foundation for dental implants, ensuring that even patients with significant bone loss can enjoy the benefits of permanent tooth replacement
Why is a Bone Block Graft Necessary?
When teeth are missing for a long period—often seen in long-term denture wearers—the jawbone naturally begins to resorb or “shrink” because it is no longer being stimulated by tooth roots. If the bone has thinned out significantly, it may not be strong enough to support an implant fixture.
A block graft involves using a small piece of the patient’s own bone, typically harvested from the chin or lower jaw area, to “bulk out” the site. By using your own bone material, the body is much more likely to accept the graft, leading to a faster and more successful integration.
Is a Bone Block Graft Right for You?
This procedure is the gold standard for patients who have suffered from:
-
Severe Jawbone Deterioration: Often caused by missing teeth or advanced periodontal disease.
-
Long-term Denture Use: Where traditional dentures no longer fit securely due to bone loss.
-
Traumatic Tooth Loss: Where the surrounding bone was damaged during the initial loss of the tooth.
