Bone Grafting for Dental Implants in Seoul
A Plus Dental Clinic | Over 25 Years of Implant Experience
Overview of Dental Bone Grafting
Dental bone grafting is a foundational procedure used to rebuild jawbone volume that has been lost due to tooth extraction, periodontal disease, trauma, or long-term denture use. Adequate bone is essential for stable dental implant placement and long-term success.
At A Plus Dental Clinic, bone grafting procedures are performed by an experienced implant team with over 25 years of clinical experience, following structured protocols aligned with international implant dentistry standards.
Over 25 Years of Clinical Implant and Grafting Experience
Bone grafting requires careful diagnosis, material selection, and surgical precision. With more than two decades of experience, the clinical team at A Plus Dental Clinic has managed a wide range of grafting cases, from minor ridge preservation to complex reconstruction for advanced bone loss.
This level of experience allows for predictable planning, reduced complication risk, and long-term implant stability.
Why Bone Grafting Is Necessary Before Implants
Jawbone loss commonly occurs when a tooth is missing for an extended period. Without stimulation, the bone gradually resorbs, reducing the available support for implants.
Bone grafting may be recommended to:
- Restore sufficient bone height and width
- Improve implant stability and longevity
- Correct defects from infection or trauma
- Prepare sites for future implant placement
Types of Bone Grafting Procedures
The appropriate grafting technique is selected based on bone condition, implant location, and long-term treatment goals.
Common bone grafting procedures include:
- Socket preservation after tooth extraction
- Ridge augmentation for horizontal or vertical bone loss
- Guided bone regeneration (GBR) using membranes
- Sinus lift–related grafting for upper jaw implants
Each approach is planned conservatively to maximize long-term outcomes.
Digital Diagnostics and Treatment Planning
Bone grafting treatment begins with comprehensive diagnostics, including 3D CT imaging to assess bone volume, density, and anatomical structures. Digital planning allows the clinical team to determine:
- The amount of bone regeneration required
- Optimal graft placement
- Implant positioning for future stability
This diagnostic-driven approach improves predictability and safety.
Bone Graft Materials and Surgical Technique
Bone graft materials are selected based on individual clinical needs and may include natural or biocompatible grafting materials. The graft is carefully placed and stabilized to encourage new bone formation over time.
At A Plus Dental Clinic, grafting strategies focus on long-term implant support rather than short-term convenience.
Healing Period and Implant Timing
After bone grafting, a healing period is required for the graft to integrate with existing bone. Implant placement timing depends on:
- The extent of grafting
- Bone quality and regeneration progress
- Overall oral health condition
Implants may be placed simultaneously or after full graft integration, depending on the case.
Candidate Evaluation for Bone Grafting
Bone grafting may be recommended for patients who:
- Have insufficient jawbone for implant placement
- Experienced bone loss after tooth extraction
- Are undergoing implant failure revision
- Need structural support for long-term implant success
A thorough clinical assessment is required to confirm suitability.
