Dental
implants require sufficient bone to be adequately stabilised.
For some patients with jaw deficiencies implant treatment
would not be an option without bone augmentation. Our
diagnostic process will help to determine the availability
of bone. This is usually done with the help of a CT-type
scan to obtain a 3-dimensional x-ray image for accurate
bone assessment.
In cases where sufficient bone is not available a range
of grafting
techniques can be used.
