About Bone Graft
A bone graft is a surgical procedure that involves transplanting healthy bone tissue to repair or reinforce bones damaged by injury, disease, or tooth loss. This process stimulates bone regeneration, facilitating healing and providing a stable base for dental implants or mending bone fractures.
Procedure of Bone Graft
-
Preoperative Assessment: The patient's medical history and X-rays are examined to determine the extent of bone loss or damage and identify suitable donor sites for bone harvesting.
-
Anesthesia: Local or general anesthesia is administered to ensure the patient's comfort during the surgery.
-
Bone Harvesting: Healthy bone tissue is obtained from another part of the patient's body (autograft) or from a donor (allograft) or synthetic material (alloplast).
-
Graft Placement: The harvested bone is then carefully placed at the site of bone loss or damage, where it will promote bone regeneration and integration.
-
Stabilization: In some cases, the graft may be secured with screws, plates, or mesh to ensure stability during the healing process.
