What is jawbone powder (bone graft)?
In case of bone deficiency and loss, the biomaterials applied to the area where bone formation is desired
are called bone graft, in other words bone powder. These bone grafts can be taken from the patient’s
own body (usually from the jawbone and hip bone), can be of animal origin (bovine origin grafts), or they
can be produced synthetically in the laboratory.
In which cases are bone grafts applied?
Bone grafts (bone powders) are generally used in cases where there is insufficient bone in the area
where the implant teeth will be made, in cases where implant teeth are desired to be made in the same
session as the tooth extraction (implant in 24 hours) (immediate implant) and in sinus floor elevation
operations before the implant procedure.

disorders can lead to bone resorption in the jaws.
In this case, the general problem is that various anatomical and systemic factors prevent implant tooth
formation with bone resorption.
However, thanks to advanced surgical procedures, it is possible to elevate and expand the bone bearing
the teeth with bone powders in our patients with insufficient bone.
