Procedure process
The bone graft procedure is carried out safely for the dentists and the patients.
- Anaesthesia will be given to the patient before the surgery.
- There will be a clean-up of the affected area.
- An incision in the gum will be made by the surgeon, this is to separate the gum from the bone so that a new one can be placed.
- The new bone will be securely fit in the patient’s mouth with either a dissolvable adhesive or a membrane that has special screws.
- The incision is then sewn so that the patient can heal after the procedure. Antibodies will be given to the patient to manage their discomfort or swelling.
