Why go to Hungary for treatment
Over the years Hungary has established itself as a leading European country for affordable professional dental treatments.
Not having enough bone for dental implants means that in most cases there are solutions, however in Ireland bone loss correction is expensive.
When you add the cost of bone augmentation or grafting to the cost of dental implants the total cost of treatment can be severe.
Hence the reason that so many patients from Ireland look abroad for cheaper treatment when there is not enough bone for dental implants.

Dental implants with bone loss
For dental implants to be successful the patients jawbone must be healthy and in good condition.
These titanium implants are very strong and they need good jawbone structure for the best possible foundation to support a new set of teeth.
The upper jawbone has softer build bone, the lower jawbone comprises more denser quality bone.
When teeth that are beyond redemption are extracted a gap is left behind.
Over time this gap can become reabsorbed, meaning it shrinks, making it more difficult to insert implants.
Bone density and implants
Let’s look at bone density and implants, bone density is a measurement of the bone mass and their strength.
Bone density is the number one priority for dental implants because these titanium implants in order to be successful must directly fuse with the jawbone.
Where there is not enough bone for dental implants the treatment may not work at all because osseointegration (bone fusion) may not take place.
What affects bone density
Every patient is different and unique, several factors come into play and can affect bone density, for example:
- The patients age, from the age of 30 bone density has peaked and is in decline
- Osteoporosis is a factor, especially in female patients, it can cause lower density bone
- Genetics can play a part, especially if osteoporosis was prevalent in parents or grandparents
- Missing teeth cause gaps to appear, gaps cause bone shrinkage
Free consultation to evaluate bone for implants
At Hungarian Dentists Wexford we offer each patient a free consultation to evaluate bone for implants, please call Fintan on 0873490104 to arrange.
Our Hungarian dentists visit the Wexford town clinic every month, Dr Tamas or Dr Heda are very experienced.

Recommended treatment for insufficient jawbone
Insufficient jawbone for implants is quite common, in our state-of-the-art dental clinic Hungary we offer treatments that include bovine derived bone grafting.
Over the past 35 years our professional dental team have found Bio-Oss to be the most successful method to replace insufficient bone for implants.
The procedure involves surgery under sedation, our experienced surgeon will make incisions and graft the new bone to the existing bone.
Once both fuse together the nest step is the placement of the dental implant to replace missing teeth.
Weak jawbone
At Hungarian Dentists Wexford our staff that come from Hungary may recommend a bone graft if your jawbone isnt strong enough to take and hold implants without causing any damage.
The bone correction process is designed to significantly strengthen the jawbone to allow the dental implant treatment to be successful.

Two visits process
Treatment where there isnt enough bone for dental implants is a two visits process to Perfect Smile Dental clinic in Hungary.
The bone augmentation process is part of the first visit, that needs to be the first priority, the material that is used helps to create new bone cells around the existing jawbone.
If we have to extract any teeth when you come to Hungary the bone augmentation can be carried out straight after that.
Then you need to come back to Perfect Smile Hungary after 4-6 months, by that time the bone fusion will be complete and you can get your implants.
Why bone augmentation
There are dental and medical reasons why bone augmentation is the most appropriate solution to save jawbone structure that is degenerating.
Some very important reasons include the possibility that if bone structure isn’t treated by bone augmentation there could be complications.
These complications include teeth breakage, bone fracture or severe pain.
The tissues that contain blood vessels and nerves can suffer trauma.

Bone augmentation is the best solution to maintain the best oral health possible and to eliminate discomfort and pain.
In situations where there is insufficient space between the jawbone and the sinus cavity a sinus lift and bone augmentation may be necessary.
During the sinus lift procedure the sinus membrane is lifted into the cavity, this allows more space for the implant without any pressure on the sinus cavity.

We have established that bone augmentation is necessary where not enough bone exists for implants.
