Major Jaw Bone Grafting
Major bone grafts are typically performed to repair defects of the jaws.
These defects may arise as a result of traumatic injuries, tumor surgery, or congenital defects.
Large defects are repaired using the patient’s own bone. This bone is harvested from a number of different sites, depending on the size of the defect. The skull (cranium), hip (iliac crest), and lateral knee (tibia), are common donor sites. These procedures are routinely performed in the office but may need to be performed in an operating room and could require a hospital stay.
