Is Bone Grafting Required For Mini Dental Implants?
In this video, Dr. Vahid Bashi explains the advantages of mini dental implants over traditional ones, avoiding costly bone grafts and lengthy healing.
The necessity of bone grafting when placing dental implants depends on the specific situation and the location where the implants are intended to be inserted. In many cases, especially when using mini dental implants, bone grafts may not be required. Mini dental implants have a smaller diameter compared to traditional implants, which allows them to be placed in areas with limited bone volume, where conventional implants may not be feasible.
The advantage of using mini dental implants is that they often eliminate the need for bone grafts, saving patients both time and money. Bone graft procedures, while effective, involve additional surgery and require extra time and effort, making the overall process more complex and potentially uncomfortable.
To determine whether bone grafting is necessary for your specific case, the best approach is to schedule a free consultation and undergo a CT scan. This assessment will help us evaluate the bone density and volume in the areas where the implants are to be placed, allowing us to make an informed decision regarding the need for any type of bone grafting. Feel free to reach out to us to initiate this consultation process and gain clarity on your individual treatment requirements.
