Implants

Dental implants are artificial tooth roots which are placed within the jaw bone and carry removable or fixed dentures. The are usually made of titanium, ceramics or a combination of both materials. The part of the implant that is fixed within the bone mostly looks like a screw or cylinder.

Bone augmentation

Bone augmentation, or grafting, may be necessary in various situations, e.g. prior to implant placement to regenerate enough bone tissue for the planned implant. It is also used in periodontology in order to reverse the bone loss caused by periodontal disease. Basically, there are three types of bone graft: autogenous bone taken from another area, bone taken from another individual or artificial bone.
