Do you require bone grafts and/or membranes for your dental implants in Cali, Colombia?
You may need a bone graft and membrane in order to perform your dental implant procedure, depending on your jaw bone density. These bone grafts don’t come from other parts of your body rather they’re grafted from bovine.
A bone graft is $230 per gram and most patients that do need it, require 1-2 grams per tooth. Membranes are $190 USD.
How about temporary crown solutions for your dental implants?
Though not required, you may desire a temporary crown solution to have in between the 4-6 months while your implants fuse to your jaw bone. As you may know, all implant procedures are done in 2-3 phases.
Once the implant (the rod/screw itself) is surgically inserted into your jaw bone, it will take a few months for the bone and implant to fuse and heal.
During this time, you may decide to wear a temporary crown solution in the form of a partial or denture, or a combination of the two depending on how many implants you’re getting this time.
This is done for aesthetic purposes or if you’d like to have additional support while chewing your food. If you’ve gone a long time without a tooth, you may decide you don’t need a temporary solution.

Dental implant procedures are typically done in 2 phases, sometimes 3. The first phase is where any tooth extractions, bone grafts, membranes are taken care of and the implants themselves are surgically inserted into your jaw bone. If you want temporary crowns, these are done at this time as well.
Four to six months later you will return for the second phase where the permanent crowns are placed on your implants, completing the dental implant procedure.
