In dental jargon, a bone graft<\/strong> is a procedure that involves taking healthy bone from one part of the mouth and placing it in another to increase volume and improve the strength of surrounding teeth. There are several types of bone grafts, each with its own benefits and drawbacks. In this blog post, you\u2019ll learn more about three common types of bone grafts: sinus lift with bone graft, alveolus and sinus floor elevation, as well as implant-assisted jawbone graft surgery. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This article is for patients who have been advised dental implants but may not have enough jawbone support for implant placement<\/strong>.This blog helps them understand why procedures like bone grafting and sinus lift<\/strong> may be needed before or during implant treatment, and what questions they should ask before planning dental implants<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is a sinus lift with bone graft?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n

Sinus Lift with Bone Graft<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

A sinus lift with bone graft is a procedure in which the dentist in Mumbai <\/a>or oral surgeon uses the patient\u2019s own bone to improve the dental implant site. The procedure is sometimes called a maxillofacial graft. In this procedure, the dentist removes a small block of bone from the patient\u2019s palate. Next, the surgeon places the bone block into the patient\u2019s sinus cavity, lifting it up and out of the way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then, the dentist implants an implant into the site where the bone lift was placed. The sinus lift with bone graft can improve implant success rates by creating more room for the implant. Since implants are placed below the gum line, there isn\u2019t much room for surrounding tissue to grow into the implant site. A sinus lift procedure gives the implant site more room to grow into the jaw, which can reduce the risk of early implant loss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alveolus and sinus floor elevation<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

An alveolus and sinus floor elevation is a type of sinus lift that is done for placement of dental implants. During the procedure, a small amount of bone is removed from the jawbone. This bone is then placed in the patient\u2019s sinus, where it lift the sinus floor and alveolar ridge (gum tissue around the teeth). This results in more room for the implant to be placed below the gum line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An alveolus and sinus floor elevation is less invasive than other types of bone grafts. It also doesn\u2019t cause any complications, such as infection or swelling in the sinuses. However, it doesn\u2019t provide as much room for the implant as bone grafts, such as a genial iliac augmentation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Implant-assisted jawbone graft surgery<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

An implant-assisted jawbone graft is a procedure that combines aspects of 2 types of grafts: an iliac augmentation and a genial iliac augmentation. In this procedure, dentist removes a small amount of bone from the patient\u2019s hip and places it in the jawbone. This bone is then allowed to heal, after which it is placed below the gum line and around the implant<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
