A stable foundation for durable and secure dental implants
Bone grafting is a safe, routine oral surgery procedure that restores jawbone stability and provides a secure foundation for implants. At PureDental, we use modern technology, market-leading materials, and micron-precise 3D design to guarantee the long-term stability and durability of your implants.
The purpose of bone grafting is to restore bone tissue that has been lost due to tooth loss, so that the subsequent dental implant can be securely and safely loaded in the long term.
The incorporation of the substitute material creates strong, stable bone tissue, which guarantees the safety of the implants for many years.
Using state-of-the-art 3D CBCT-based planning, we precisely determine the location and extent of the procedure, ensuring that the surgery causes minimal discomfort.
We use premium quality bone replacement materials (e.g. Bio-Oss®, BoneAlbumin™, a combination of the patient’s own bone and membrane), always tailored to the individual needs of the patient.
The new bone structure not only ensures the stability of the implants, but also restores the natural shape of the gums and comfortable chewing.
Bone grafting provides a solution for those who have lost bone mass due to tooth loss but want a durable, secure foundation for implants. This restores stable chewing, confident speech, and a natural smile.
It is especially recommended if you:
Bone replacement is one of the most important preparatory treatments for dental implantation. Based on digital diagnostics, we painlessly replace the missing bone tissue, which integrates stably within 3-6 months, providing a secure foundation for subsequent implants and dental prostheses.
In every case, we adapt to the patient's individual anatomical characteristics. For precise treatment planning, we take a CBCT scan, which we use to determine the type and extent of bone grafting and the ideal materials to use.
The surgery is performed under local anesthesia or general anesthesia, depending on the patient's needs. We place premium bone grafting material (e.g., Bio-Oss®, OrthoSera BoneAlbumin™, a combination of the patient's own bone) in the missing area, which we cover with a special membrane (Bio-Gide® or Cytoplast®) to ensure safe healing.
During the healing period, the bone substitute material is gradually incorporated and new bone tissue is formed, providing a stable foundation for the implants. This usually takes 3–6 months.
Once the bone has properly integrated and stabilized, implantation can be safely performed, followed by the placement of the final crown or bridge. Thus, bone grafting guarantees the long-term stability of implants.
A denture is a modern, safe, and comfortable solution for complete tooth loss, combining the advantages of fixed and removable replacements. Fixed to implants, yet removable, this solution is comfortable, safe, and aesthetic, restoring the freedom to chew, smile, and speak with confidence.
All-on-4™ is a modern dental restoration solution in which only 4 implants support the entire dental arch. Thanks to the special placement, bone grafting can be avoided in most cases, and the patient can receive a fixed, temporary denture within 48–72 hours.
We have compiled answers to the questions most frequently asked by our patients regarding bone grafting.
No. It is performed under local anesthesia; temporary tension/swelling may occur, but this is easily manageable.
Depending on the type of integration 3–6 months. After this, implantation can be performed safely.
Certainly, for minor replacements, yes; for larger volumes, a two-step procedure is recommended. This is decided based on 3D CBCT.
The most common procedures: horizontal bone grafting (if the bone is narrow), vertical bone augmentation (if the bone is low) and socket preservation (bone preservation after tooth extraction). The choice is always made on an individual basis according to CBCT-based planning.
Bone grafting is a routine, safe oral surgery procedure. As with any medical procedure, there are risks involved, but complications are extremely rare, especially when the treatment is performed by an experienced oral surgeon using premium-quality materials in a sterile and well-prepared environment.
Possible temporary symptoms after the procedure:
Mild swelling, pain, or bruising in the days following surgery, which can be effectively treated with painkillers.
Wound healing disorders occur if the wound is subjected to excessive pressure or if the patient does not follow instructions (e.g., smoking, blowing the nose too hard).
Less frequent but manageable risks:
Infection, which is rare and can be treated with antibiotics if necessary.
Partial resorption or rejection of the bone substitute material if the surrounding tissues do not heal properly; in this case, repeated intervention may be necessary.
Inflammatory reactions to bone replacement materials are very rare, but we use biocompatible, clinically tested materials.
Overall: bone grafting is a modern and safe procedure which, with proper preparation and expertise, carries minimal risk while enabling successful and long-lasting tooth replacement.
We use globally recognized, premium biocompatible materials such as Bio-Oss® or OrthoSera BoneAlbumin™, which are similar in structure to human bone, stimulate cell function, and accelerate healing.
Own bone (autograft)
In some cases, we use bone chips obtained from the patient’s own bone, which contain living cells and growth factors. This can often be combined with other materials to ensure more reliable bone formation.
Membrane technology
In all cases, bone grafting is protected and stabilized with a special membrane. Bio-Gide® is an absorbable, natural membrane, while Cytoplast® is non-absorbable and provides lasting protection for larger volume grafts.
Bio-Oss® is a globally used, bovine-derived, biocompatible bone substitute material that is extremely similar in structure to human bone. Its great advantage is that it integrates excellently and is stable in the long term, which is why it is often referred to as the “gold standard” in scientific literature.
In contrast, OrthoSera BoneAlbumin™ is a human-derived (allograft) material coated with albumin. This albumin stimulates cell activity and accelerates the healing process, making it particularly beneficial for patients for whom rapid and effective regeneration is of paramount importance.
An autograft, i.e., bone chips taken from the patient’s own bone, is the most natural method of bone replacement. It contains living cells and growth factors that promote faster and stronger bone integration.
Since it is completely autogenous tissue, there is no risk of rejection. However, in most cases we combine it with other premium bone grafting materials (e.g. Bio-Oss®) to achieve the safest and most effective regeneration possible.
Avoid vigorous cleaning of the wound area during the first few days; use a chlorhexidine rinse instead. After 2–3 days, the surrounding area can also be gently cleaned with a soft toothbrush. You can usually resume your normal oral care routine after 2 weeks.
Rarely, partial or complete failure may occur, for example due to infection, smoking, or premature exertion. In such cases, most problems can be corrected with corrective surgery, other materials, or a longer healing period.
