Is Bone Grafting Required For a Mini Dental Implant?

Watch this video by Dr. Bruce Fine, an experienced New Jersey implant dentist, as he explains how we determine if a bone autograft is necessary for mini dental implant placement.

In many cases, bone grafting is not a necessary procedure. However, when a tooth extraction occurs, it’s essential to consider bone regeneration to prevent bone loss and avoid leaving a gap. We have a highly effective bone regeneration process that we utilize. Typically, the bone regeneration process takes about two months, during which the bone regrows. The great news is that, for the majority of cases, we can perform the implant placement simultaneously with the bone regeneration procedure. If you’re interested in discussing this further, we invite you to schedule a free consultation with us. Additionally, we’ll provide a free 3D X-ray to assess your specific situation and determine the best approach.
