Bone Grafting Treatment Procedures at London Dental Specialists

At London Dental Specialists, our bone grafting procedures are carried out with precision and care. Our expert team utilises advanced techniques to ensure optimal results for each patient.

The bone grafting procedure typically involves the following steps:

   • Allografts: Using donor bone material
   
   
   • Xenografts: Using processed animal bone
   
   
   • Synthetic materials: Using biocompatible artificial bone substitutes
   
   
   
   



4. Graft stabilisation: The graft is secured in place using specialised techniques to ensure it remains stable during the healing process.



5. Closure of the surgical site: The area is carefully sutured to promote proper healing.

Throughout the procedure, we employ state-of-the-art technology to enhance precision and minimise discomfort. Our team monitors your vital signs and ensures your well-being at all times.

Depending on your specific case, we may incorporate additional treatments to enhance bone regeneration:

• Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy: Utilising growth factors from your own blood to accelerate healing

• Growth factor application: Enhancing bone regeneration and integration

The duration of the procedure can vary depending on the complexity of your case, typically ranging from 45 minutes to 2 hours. Our team will provide you with a more accurate estimate based on your individual treatment plan.

Post Bone Grafting Treatment Care at London Dental Specialists

Proper aftercare is essential for successful bone graft healing following your procedure at London Dental Specialists. Our comprehensive post-treatment care ensures optimal recovery and integration of your bone graft, setting the foundation for future dental work.

During the initial 24-48 hours after your bone grafting procedure, you should:

• Apply ice packs to the outside of your face in 20-minute intervals to reduce swelling


• Take prescribed pain medication as directed to manage discomfort


• Rest and avoid strenuous activities that could disturb the surgical site


• Maintain a soft food diet to prevent pressure on the grafted area

Our dental team will provide you with detailed oral hygiene instructions specific to your case. Typically, these include:

Your healing timeline will vary based on the type and extent of your bone graft:

• Initial healing: 2 weeks for soft tissue recovery


• Bone integration: 3-6 months for complete bone regeneration


• Final maturation: Up to 9 months before implant placement (if applicable)

Throughout your recovery, London Dental Specialists will schedule regular follow-up appointments to:

• Monitor healing progress through clinical examinations


• Assess bone integration with advanced imaging when appropriate


• Address any concerns or complications promptly


• Adjust your care plan if necessary

We recommend avoiding these activities during your recovery period:

• Smoking or using tobacco products (significantly impairs healing)


• Drinking through straws (creates negative pressure that can dislodge clots)


• Consuming hard, crunchy, or sticky foods near the surgical site


• Vigorous exercise for at least 3-5 days post-procedure

At London Dental Specialists, we're committed to supporting you throughout your entire bone grafting process. Our team is always available to answer questions and provide guidance as you progress toward complete healing and your next treatment phase.
