In certain cases there is insufficient bone for implantation. Bone augmentation is required to ensure adequate stability.
- The process begins with 3D imaging that shows the quantity and quality of bone.
- During the procedure we place a special bone graft material in the deficient area.
- A membrane is often used to support regeneration and aid new bone formation.
- During the healing period the bone integrates and strengthens.
- Afterward, the implant can be safely placed.
