Bone graft surgery - Smile with confidence

1. BONE GRAFT SURGERY BONE GRAFT SURGERY – – SMILE WITH CONFIDENCE CONFIDENCE SMILE WITH Miguel de Cervantes rightly said, “Every tooth in a man’s head is more valuable than a diamond.” Gone are the days when you had to compromise and settle for crooked, discoloured or inappropriately aligned teeth or other dental problems. Dentistry has been evolving rapidly to help people smile with confidence. Bone graft surgery in India has become increasingly popular in recent years. WHAT IS BONE GRAFT SURGERY? It refers to a procedure where the surgeon places a bone at a place where the positioned implant helps establishes a thicker area to support it.

2. TYPES OF BONE GRAFTS There are four different types of grafts – Autografts, Allografts, Isografts, and Xenografts. The grafting materials can be bone, cartilage, skin, veins, etc. AUTOGRAFTS In this type of bone grafting, we take a bone from the patient’s body, mostly the mouth or hip. Autografts tend to create easy compatibility with the jawbone since harvested bone comes from the patient’s body itself. Autografts have some substantial advantages: the risk of bone rejection is very negligible, and the risk of disease is relatively low as the patient’s bone is shifted from one part of the body to another. ALLOGRAFTS In this procedure, we take a bone from human bone donors in the event of their death. The bones collected under expert supervision from bone banks are tested thoroughly and sterilized to ensure that the bone is safe for use. ISOGRAFTS In this method, both the recipient and the donor are identical twins. XENOGRAFTS In this method, we take grafts from other species, most commonly pig.
