When are short implants used? Is it better than a bone grafting?
3D video of Clínica Medico Dental Pardiñas ([ Ссылка ]) about the short implants and bone augmentation.
There are cases in which, due to tooth loss, the bone will gradually be resorbed, reaching a point where the placement of dental implants in the area may be compromised. One option to solve this problem is the placement of short implants. So a previous regenerative procedure with bone grafts is avoided. Another option is to place a block graft that will be fixed to the bone with fixation screws. After 4-6 months, the graft will be integrated and remodeled. At this time, it will be possible to place longer dental implants.
To reconstruct a horizontal bone defect, one of the options is the placement of a block graft, to recover the necessary width for a proper implant placement. The block or blocks can be obtained from the mandibular symphysis or the mandibular ramus, among others. Then the block is fixed to the bone, the spaces are filled with biomaterials and the area is covered with membranes. Once the graft has been correctly integrated, implant placement will be possible.
Another option is to prepare in advance the block graft with the implants, which are then placed in the area to be reconstructed.
