Bone Grafts

In the immediate period after surgery, your mouth will feel numb from the local anaesthetic. It is best to avoid hot drinks or chewing on that side until the feeling returns. We will provide you with comprehensive aftercare instructions. Maintaining excellent daily oral hygiene and keeping the area clean is essential to support smooth tissue healing.

Like any surgical procedure, bone augmentation carries a small element of risk. The bone graft can occasionally become infected or loose, leading to graft failure. Clinical data shows the average failure rate for complex bone augmentation is around 25%. If a graft does not integrate successfully, it can either be redone or an alternative treatment pathway can be explored.

At Pearl Dental Clinic, we prioritise safety and long-term success. We use world-leading, highly biocompatible materials, including Bio-Oss (natural bone granules derived from bovine) or advanced synthetic bone granules. These are paired with a Bio-Gide protective membrane (derived from porcine) to naturally shield the area while your own bone regenerates.

The cost of bone grafting depends entirely on the complexity of your case and whether it is performed as a standalone procedure or alongside your implant placement. We provide transparent pricing and a tailored treatment plan following your initial assessment scan. 0% finance options are available to help manage the cost.
