Even if oral and dental health is provided ideally, sometimes we encounter hopeless situations
and we have to make tooth extraction decisions. Some of the many reasons that lead us to the decision to extract teeth: We can list these as teeth with excessive material loss, teeth loosening excessively due to gum diseases, and teeth broken due to trauma. Following tooth extraction, an extraordinary healing begins in the extraction socket. While ossification occurs thanks to the blood clot collected at the tooth extraction site, gingiva
forms on the surface of the clot and closes the wound. But bone healing has an important feature. This means that while ossification occurs within the socket, bone resorption occurs on the wall of the extraction socket facing the lip and cheek.
The part of the jaw bone surrounding the tooth is called the alveolar process. The main function of this part
is to support the tooth. For this reason, a rapid loss of this bone occurs with the extraction of the tooth. This loss negatively affects our aesthetic treatments. It may also cause us not to be able to find enough
bone for implant treatment. For these reasons, we may need to perform a series of
additional surgeries that complicate the treatments
Today, this issue has become an important
subject of my branch of maxillofacial surgery and contemporary dentistry. How can I get more aesthetic results? How can I protect the tooth extraction area without experiencing bone loss? Socket grafting techniques
provide the answers to such questions.
Socket grafting technique; Following tooth extraction, it can be defined as the application of substances in particle form, called
bone graft, to the socket where the tooth emerges. Bone grafts are bone-forming or bone-replacing substances. Thanks to this technique, the amount of bone resorption after extraction is close to zero. In this way, we are able to perform aesthetic
treatments with features closest to natural teeth.br />
Immediat Implant Applications:
This definition means as soon as the tooth is extracted, instead of the tooth extraction. It is used for implant placement.
It is a minimally invasive treatment method. In other words, it is a method that does not compromise patient comfort, the healing process is easy
and the results are predictable.
Socket grafting t An important feature of the technique is that it can be performed together with implants. In this way, when the implant healing is completed, we can perform aesthetic
treatments with the very good amount of tissue obtained.
