Bone grafting in implant implants is a dental technique designed to overcome short bone, small bones, and bone quality. In order to create a firm foundation to achieve high dental implant effectiveness. The procedure of bone grafts performed by a good doctor will achieve high efficacy and absolute safety for patients. Bone grafts are performed before implant transplant surgery takes about a year to wait for the results of bone grafting to be stable, stable to support implant cylinders.
Currently, bone used in bone grafts consists of two types, bone and artificial bone. These two types have their own pros and cons. What are the pros and cons of bone grafting materials?
Advantages and disadvantages of materials used for bone graft.
Bone itself is the bone taken from the patient's body, which can be taken from the hip, jaw, chin, or skull. Artificial bone is a type of bone made from specialized dental material. Effectively stimulates the elongated bones and the artificial bone works by self-destruction mechanism.
♦ Artificial bone
Artificial bone is made of coral and the main component of artificial bone is hydroxy apatite or beta-tricalcium. This type of artificial bone can be consumed on its own. Artificial bone will be grafted by the surgeon, missing the jawbone, creating space for the bone to grow itself. Once the bone itself develops, artificial bone will dissolve. Usually every 1 month, the bone itself will grow by 1 mm so it takes up to 6 months for new bone growth to achieve the rate of bone for implant implants. After the bone growth itself is standardized, patients will not receive implant implants for a period of 3 to 6 months, allowing their bones to develop stably and with sufficient strength to lift. Implant cylinders are new to implant surgeons.
Advantages of artificial bone
The patient does not have to undergo a painful bone cutting operation relatively high safety.
Disadvantages
It is easy to take bone loss after implantation, the bone is very hard, it is often very discrete, the adhesion is not high so the healing mechanism is very slow.
The gingival bone where the implants usually do not have the real pink gums that it easily translates into aesthetic darkness.
Despite its high biocompatibility, artificial bones have no physical characteristics, so their hardness is very low.
♦ Bone itself
This is the type of bone that is taken from the patient's body, which may be the bones of the hip, chin, jaw, or skull.
Advantages
Because it is a bone in itself, the bones are very fast and do not have to be eliminated
Disadvantages
At the same time, the patient will have to suffer two bites (one for bone cutting and one for bone grafting). Should be hurt.
In addition to the two commonly used bones, more than two types of bones are used in many dentistry: bones and human bones.
Animal skeletons
The type of bone taken from the animal body that is not human
Advantage
This type of bone is less likely to have bone defects and has higher hardness than artificial bone
Disadvantages
Highly likely to be eliminated like artificial bone
♦ Bone people
This type of bone is taken from someone else's bones
Advantage
The bones are of good quality, having all the advantages of self -bones
Patients do not undergo many incisions
Disadvantages
It is difficult to find because it is not always available as artificial bone.
Note: the efficacy of the treatment can vary depending on each patient’s condition.
