In the majority of cases, tooth loss is caused by
periodontal disease and not tooth decay or caries. If not treated early,
periodontal disease can become severe enough to not only permanently damage
natural teeth, but also cause bone and hard tissue loss. Bone loss can also be
caused by tooth extractions, accidents, chemicals and aging. Until the advent
of bone graft materials, bone loss was considered permanent. The loss of bone
can cause discomfort and prevent patients from receiving dental implants.
Bone grafting procedures using bone graft substitutes
(BGSs) are performed to repair bone loss. Bone grafting can be performed during
periodontal procedures in an attempt to save a tooth, or during a dental
implant procedure to replace a tooth. Tissue engineering products and dental
membranes can be used in conjunction with BGSs to increase the rate and extent
of bone regeneration.
Dental bone graft substitutes are used for packing
the space left by missing bone and for stimulating the growth of new bone. In
addition to these functions, the use of BGS has proven to be an efficient way
to enhance bonding, healing and longevity in traditional dental implants.
The volume of BGS used in a bone grafting procedure
depends on the location and size of the bone that needs repair. In general, far
less bone graft material is used in a dental procedure compared to an
orthopedic bone grafting procedure..
The overall dental bone graft substitute and other
biomaterials market is expected to show growth a few percentage points higher
than the dental implant market. This correlates with the increased number of
dental implant procedures that incorporate some sort of bone regenerative
product, be it a growth factor, or a bone graft substitute coupled with a
barrier membrane.
