In cases where the patient lacks the bone needed to support a dental implant, a dental bone graft is a mandatory method to strengthen the jawbone prior to implant surgery. Patients can determine if they need a bone graft after consulting with their dentist. Patients who need a dental bone graft may be curious about the cost. This article will look at the dental bone graft cost as well as the various factors that affect the overall cost for the patient.
The factors influencing dental bone graft cost
Dental bone graft cost is very diverse, depending on the condition of the jaw bone and the type of bone used. The cost of bone grafting can basically vary from patient to case.
1. Materials of bone used in dental bone graft procedures
The source of bone used for dental bone graft procedures is usually from one of four sources:
Bones is taken from the patient’s own body (Autograft Bone)
Autograft bone is considered to be highly effective and safe because this type of bone is less prone to rejection. In fact, bone can be removed from the patient’s hip, chin, knee, or other locations in the jaw. After being extracted, the bone will be adjusted to suit the needs of bone grafting and then will be grafted into the missing jaw bone. This type of dental bone graft requires two separate surgical procedures, making it more expensive to perform.
Bone is taken from the human cavader (Allografts Bone)
Another source of bone is human cadaver (Allografts Bone) obtained from certified medical tissue banks. This type of bone is usually freeze-dried and is always sterilized to maintain its integrity during storage. This is a safe and affordable alternative to using the patient’s own bone.
Bone is taken from the animal bone (Xenografts Bone)
The most widely bone used in dental bone grafting procedures is animal bone (Xenografts Bone). Usually, the bone of choice for bone grafting is bovine bone because it combines very well with human bone and rarely causes complications. This type of bone is processed and preserved similar to human carcass, it is always thoroughly cleaned and sterilized before being used for medical procedures.
Bone is taken from the synthetic bone (Alloplastic Bone)
Synthetic bone (Alloplastic Bone) may be recommended in some cases. While synthetic material can fuse with human bone effectively, it is not as effective as the other materials.
In general, dental bone graft cost based on the bone material used will vary depending on the advantages of each type as well as the complexity of the dental bone graft procedure for each type of bone.
– Typical costs associated with a simple dental bone graft for a single implant using synthetic bone typically range from $300 to $800.
– If a cadaver bone or cow bone is used, this dental bone graft cost type is around $250 to $1,100 for a single implant area.
– If the bone graft is done with the patient’s own bone, this method is more complicated when the patient has to be hospitalized to have the bone removed. The need for patients to be hospitalized for bone grafting surgery, and the hiring of orthopedic surgeons and anesthesiologists cause dental bone graft costs to increase.
A bone graft using bone taken from the patient’s body can cost around $2,000-$3,000 or more. These are estimates and actual costs will fluctuate based on a number of factors. In addition, it is also important to note the costs associated with placing dental implants.
2. Types of grafting procedure
Besides the different materials of bone, the dental bone graft cost is based on the different types of grafting procedures, including socket preservation, ridge augmentation, periodontal bone graft, sinus lifts, and block bone graft.
