Distraction osteogenesis is a surgical technique that gradually separates bone segments to stimulate new bone growth, effectively correcting jaw and facial deformities. At London Dental Specialists, we employ this advanced method to address conditions such as mandibular hypoplasia and midface deficiencies. The procedure involves making a precise cut in the bone, followed by the gradual movement of the segments apart using a specialised device, allowing new bone tissue to form naturally in the gap. This approach not only enhances facial aesthetics but also improves functionality, providing a stable foundation for future dental implants. Our comprehensive process includes an initial consultation and assessment, the development of a customised treatment plan, the surgical procedure itself, and dedicated post-treatment care to ensure optimal results.

Distraction osteogenesis is a surgical technique used to generate new bone formation by gradually separating two bone segments. At London Dental Specialists, this procedure involves making a controlled cut in the jawbone and slowly moving the segments apart, allowing new bone to grow in the gap. This technique is particularly valuable for patients with insufficient bone volume for dental implants or those with jaw deformities requiring correction.
The three phases of distraction osteogenesis are:
Good candidates for distraction osteogenesis at London Dental Specialists include patients with significant bone deficiencies in the jaw, those with congenital jaw deformities, individuals requiring bone augmentation for dental implant placement, and patients with asymmetrical jaw growth. Our specialists conduct thorough evaluations including 3D imaging to determine if this procedure is appropriate for your specific condition.
Most patients at London Dental Specialists report minimal discomfort during distraction osteogenesis. The initial surgery is performed under appropriate anaesthesia. During the activation phase, patients typically experience pressure rather than pain. Our team provides comprehensive pain management protocols and regular follow-ups to ensure comfort throughout the treatment process.
Distraction osteogenesis works through a biological process where gradual traction stimulates new bone formation. After the initial latency period allows for soft callus formation, the active distraction phase involves slow, incremental separation of bone segments (typically 1mm per day). This controlled tension triggers the body's natural healing response, stimulating stem cells to differentiate into osteoblasts that form new bone tissue through intramembranous ossification.
The complete distraction osteogenesis process at London Dental Specialists typically takes 2-3 months. This includes:
The exact timeline varies based on individual patient needs, the specific area being treated, and the amount of bone regeneration required.
Distraction osteogenesis produces new bone through intramembranous ossification, regardless of whether it occurs in the jaw or other skeletal areas. This differs from fracture healing, which often involves endochondral ossification. In intramembranous ossification, bone forms directly from mesenchymal stem cells without a cartilage intermediate, resulting in high-quality native bone that's ideal for supporting dental implants or correcting jaw deformities.
Distraction osteogenesis at London Dental Specialists offers several advantages over traditional bone grafting:
