When it is needed
- the tooth has been missing for a long time and the bone has receded
- the bone was damaged by inflammation or periodontitis
- after a difficult extraction
- in the back of the upper jaw a sinus lift often helps
How it works
Using a 3D image, the dentist determines how much bone is missing. Bone material is placed in the area and covered with a membrane. Sometimes grafting is done together with the implant, sometimes separately, and the implant is placed after healing, usually a few months later.
Price
Bone grafting from 400 €. The price does not include the bone material, the amount of which depends on the extent. Other prices are in our price list.
Frequently asked questions
Is the procedure painful?
