What is a bone growth stimulator?

Bone growth stimulators are special agents used to speed up the formation of new bone tissue. They may consist of growth factors, proteins or synthetic materials that stimulate the body. They are often used in bone augmentation procedures or for implants in areas with little bone. The stimulator ensures better integration of the implant into the jawbone. It reduces healing time and increases the stability of the implant. This technique is particularly useful for patients with reduced bone quality. The treatment is carried out under local anaesthetic and is safe to use. Your clinician will decide whether this method is suitable for your situation. The procedure is followed by a recovery period during which the bone can grow. Regular check-ups are needed to monitor the healing process.
