Patient Information - Major bone augmentation, treatment of larger dental bone defects

What happens when there is not enough bone available? Accidents, dental traumas or advanced periodontits are just some of many reasons for tooth loss followed by degradation of bone. If the treatment is delayed for too long the height and/or thickness of the jaw bone diminishes and/or there is insufficient amount of bone for implant placement. Sufficient bone is essential to ensure the long-term stability of your dental implants. Learn more: https://www.geistlich-pharma.com/en/patients/dental-regeneration/treatment-of-larger-bone-defects/
