Implant Treatment in Bone Deficiencies
Bone Grafting in Turkey, the areas, where the implants will be applied must be examined and a detailed clinical examination should be performed. If a problem regarding the oral-dental health or gum health is determined during the clinical examination, there are steps that need to be taken before an implant treatment is carried out. For the evaluation of the height, thickness and quality of the bone a radiographic examination is required. Patients with low or borderline bone density also need to undergo a dental tomography to eliminate mistakes and then the treatment is planned according to the results.

Is a panoramic x-ray sufficient?
Panoramic x-rays provide two dimensional information. They don’t provide clear measurement results for patients with low or borderline bone density. This is why the planning of an implant treatment requires a three-dimensional dental tomography. A tomography provides detailed images of bone and soft tissue, which are not visible on normal x-rays.
Can I receive an implant treatment even if I have osteoporosis?
Osteoporosis in the body is completely different from osteoporosis in the mouth. People with osteoporosis in the body may not have dental osteoporosis or people with dental osteoporosis may not have it in the body. This is why it is necessary to undergo a detailed dental examination before any implant treatment.
How is bone created if the bone amount in the upper jaw is too low?
There might be extreme osteoporosis in the upper jaw or the gaps in the upper jaw, called sinus, may be hanging down. In this case a sinus lifting is carried out in order to increase the bone amount. At the same time bone dust graft is applied in order to increase the amount and volume of the bone. You may need to wait 3-5 months for your bone amount to increase and to fuse after a bone dust graft application before a successful implant treatment can be carried out.
