What is a bone block graft?

A bone block graft is used when more extensive bone grafting is needed for dental implant treatment. Bone to be grafted is commonly provided from your hip, jaw, chin, or scalp. These grafts are screwed into the bone in your mouth. These screws will be removed at the same time as your implant placement.

It is a surgical procedure and this type of bone grafting is used in cases when severe jawbone deterioration has set in, and the bone has thinned out significantly, meaning it will not be able to provide a secure base for implants can be attached.

Bone block grafting is typically used for long-term denture users, or those who have suffered from tooth loss over a long period of time. In these cases, significant bone deterioration is common, and the jawbone quality will benefit from a block bone graft.
