Study Notes
- Dr. Dana Choi is a board certified periodontist who has placed over 10,000 implants.
- The video focuses on the impact of bone grafting on dental implants and how it can affect longevity and aesthetics.
- Bone grafting adds more bone horizontally or vertically to the jaw to ensure the implant is placed in the correct spot.
- Bone is lost from the outer edge of the jawbone after tooth loss or disease, which is where bone grafting is needed.
- Without enough bone, a long and wide implant cannot be placed, compromising the implant's position and affecting chewing.
- Placing an implant without enough bone can lead to further bone loss, affecting implant health and aesthetics, and possibly resulting in implant loss.
- The CBCT 3D scan helps diagnose bone dimensions and determine the best implant size and placement.
- There are different types of bone grafting with varying costs, invasiveness, and recovery times.
- Patients should ask the right questions and get the proper treatment to avoid botched procedures and costly fixes.
- Gum health also impacts dental implant health over the long haul.
- Insufficient bone and gum can lead to poor aesthetic results and implant failure.
- Bone grafting may be necessary to ensure proper bone support for the implant.
- Proper planning, execution, and prevention are critical for predictable results.
- At least 2mm of bone is needed on the buccal and palatal/lingual sides for implant support.
- Front teeth always require bone grafting for optimal results.
- Back teeth may require bone grafting depending on the difficulty of extraction and duration of tooth loss.
- Genetics and biotype can affect the thickness of bone and gums.
- Thin biotype patients tend to have more bone loss and gum recession around implants.
- Guided bone regeneration may be necessary for extensive bone loss.
- Proper planning and caution are necessary for anterior dental implant placement.
- Extraction of teeth can result in removal of important bone for dental implants.
- Teeth with large cavities or long roots are harder to extract and require more bone removal.
- Root canal teeth are weaker and more likely to break during extraction, leaving difficult-to-remove fragments.
- Bone grafting is necessary to replace lost bone from extraction or periodontal disease.
- The success of bone grafting depends on the well-defined confinement of the bone graft.
- Three-wall defects are the most predictable for bone grafting, while two-wall and one-wall defects are more difficult and require rigid structures to confine the bone.
- Two-wall defects are susceptible to movement and pressure, while one-wall defects are the most unpredictable.
- Patients must follow post-op instructions to avoid pressure on the grafted area, similar to not stepping on wet concrete.
- Understanding these concepts is important to ensure the predictability and success of bone grafting for dental implants.
- Unethical practices of unnecessary bone grafting can be avoided by understanding the suitability of the site for grafting.
- Bone grafting is a procedure used to add bone to an area where it has been lost.
- Different types of bone can be used, including autogenous (from the patient), allograft (from human cadavers), xenograft (from other species), and alloplast (synthetic).
- Membranes are used to separate the bone graft from the gums and prevent the gums from growing into the grafted area.
- Membranes can be resorbable (dissolvable) or non-resorbable (non-dissolvable), with non-resorbable options including titanium mesh and Teflon membranes.
- Non-soluble stitches should be used and stay in for about 3-4 weeks.
- Socket preservation is the most predictable type of bone grafting and is done at the time of tooth extraction.
- Small onlay bone grafts are used when there is enough bone for the ideal implant position but a little more bone is needed.
- Guided bone regeneration is used for extensive bone loss and is more invasive and costly, requiring protection of the added bone from pressure and movement.
- Follow post-op instructions closely for best results.
- Bone grafting is like concrete and should not be distorted or moved during the healing period.
