The increase in the missing volume of the bone of the jaw is a surgical operation, also known as “osteoplasty” (bone plastic). The procedure is necessary before installing a dental implant if the patient has bone atrophy. And if earlier implantation with a small bone volume was impossible, now modern dental solutions help to cope with this problem by restoring the previous height and bone width.
In Odessa, this operation will also perform this operation and subsequent dental implantation in the Dent-House family dentistry clinic. The high quality of the provision of services in Dent-House is confirmed not only by international certificates, but also by the reviews of our patients. An individual approach to each client, the most modern equipment, reliable materials along with high professionalism of doctors allow you to achieve excellent results for a short treatment period.

Primary inspection and assessment of the state of the jaw
It is with the inspection of the oral cavity that the process of diagnosing the degree of resorption (destruction of bone tissue) of the jaw begins. The doctor will have to evaluate the proportions of the patient’s face, the condition of the dentition, the structure and density of those sections of the jaw where there are no teeth. Computed tomography is also necessary to obtain a three -dimensional picture that will help determine the condition of the tissues and outline the optimal place for installing the implant.
Often, according to the results of the CT, the dentist is forced to state that the existing bone tissue is not enough to implant the implant system. In this case, osteoplasty is prescribed.
The atrophic process in the jaw bone in each person proceeds individually and at different speeds. On average, resorption begins three weeks after tooth loss. This happens because the chewing load is not distributed to the zone without a tooth unit and the nutrition of the tissues of the alveolar crest is disturbed. As a result, the number of building cells – osteoblasts is reduced in the jaw structure, the volume of bone tissue is gradually reduced, the gum is thinner. The longer this site abides without load, the more complicated the process of restoring the original volume of the bone.
Inflammatory processes, such as periodontitis, periodontitis, cysts and other pathologies, also affect the degree of resorption of the jaw; genetic predisposition and natural age -related changes in the body; Removable or bridge prosthetics.
Thus, the indication for bone plasticity is not only a long absence of teeth that provoke tissue atrophy. Also, increasing the missing volume of the bone of the jaw can be prescribed for:
- periodontal diseases that destroy bone tissue;
- chronic sinusitis and a number of other ENTs, provoking atrophy of the bone of the upper jaw;
- injury or complex tooth extraction.
In addition to aesthetic defects, with atrophy of bone tissue of the jaw, functional disorders also occur. Healthy teeth are forced to take on a greater load and are destroyed faster. There is also a displacement of all units in the dentition, the teeth become more mobile. As a result, the oval of the face changes, the bite is disturbed, the diction, articulation and facial expressions are spoiled.Problems with digestion may also occur, as a person is forced to switch to softer foods.
To solve the problem of the loss of bones in Odessa will help you in the clinic “Dent-House”. Experienced doctors will choose the most suitable method and materials for increasing bone tissue. After which it will be possible to carry out dental implantation. How much such treatment costs is determined individually depending on the clinical situation.

Bone plastic methods and materials used
The essence of bone plasticity is to increase the bone volume that will be enough to install a dental implant. After the examination by the doctor, one of the available methods of the operation is chosen taking into account the testimony and individual characteristics of the patient.
The following types of procedure are distinguished depending on the materials used:
- autotransplantation – the donor fabric of the patient himself is used, as a rule, taken from the jaw or chin sections;
- alloplasty – using artificial materials (alloplasts) obtained in laboratory conditions;
- xenogenic extension – performed using bone tissues of animal origin (donor material is obtained by fence in cattle);
As a preventive measure, a barrier membrane can be installed. This collagen plate prevents the decline in bone tissue after tooth extraction. Also, biomembranes are used in all types of bone plasticity to fix osteogenic material and protect the operated area from infection.
In modern dentistry there are several types of osteoplates that are carried out depending on the degree of bone atrophy and, in general, on the individual clinical situation.
Bone block
The procedure is indicated for combined resorption (the bone decreases both in width and height). For this method, natural osteogenic material is required. Preference is given to an autogenic transplant. It is planted on the problem area and fixed with special screws. It takes about 6 months to take care. Then the screws are removed, and implantation can be performed. The main advantage of the methodology is to minimize the risks of complications with the survival of a natural bone block.
The splitting of the alveolar process
The technology is selected with horizontal resorption of both the upper and lower jaw.The plus of the method is that it is possible to simultaneously produce osteoplasty and the installation of implant. In this case, along the alveolar process, the cut is made, the resulting gap is pushed, an implant is placed inside the spongy bone, and the voids are filled with osteoplastic material. A barrier membrane is installed on top. With this approach, it is possible to significantly reduce the recovery period.
Sinus lifting
It is performed with atrophy of the bone tissue of the upper jaw in the area of the maxillary sinuses. It can be open (with a large bone deficiency) or closed (with the simultaneous installation of an implant). During the procedure, the bottom of the sinus is raised through the incision through the incision in the gum and bone and the introduction of bone material.
Directed bone regeneration
It is like any section of the jaw. With this method, the introduced bone material is covered with a collagen membrane that stimulates the growth of bone tissue on top. The survival process takes from 3 to 6 months.
