Bone augmentation is a dental procedure aimed at restoring lost bone density in the jaw. It may be necessary before placing dental implants or to preserve the structural integrity of the dentition. When the jaw loses bone—due to periodontal disease, tooth extraction, or natural atrophy—bone grafting is recommended to create a solid foundation for implants
Bone augmentation is essential for several reasons. First, it restores the bone structure in areas with insufficient density. It provides strong support for dental implants or additional bone grafts. Pain-free dental care is absolutely possible when placing dental implants, especially when it comes to bone grafting. This procedure allows for better integration of dental implants and faster healing after surgery.
Bone grafting is also crucial for preventing long-term complications such as soft tissue collapse or further bone loss
Full arch restoration based on six dental implants is typically performed with bone grafting. At our leading clinic in Portugal, this complex procedure is carried out over two treatment visits, with the guarantee of a pain-free All-on-6 experience.
Bone grafting and pain-free All-on-6
In France, many patients face complex dental situations that make it impossible to eat properly. To restore full chewing function and improve aesthetics, there is a solution—very expensive in France but fully accessible in Portugal—that allows for a complete dental restoration. This rehabilitation is based on a full extraction and the placement of six implants. In just two treatment visits, six months apart, you too can regain your smile by benefiting from affordable dental care abroad at our clinic in Portugal.
The pain-free All-on-4 method makes it possible to restore a full smile without the need for bone grafting, even in cases of significant bone loss. This technique relies on the placement of four strategically positioned dental implants, including two tilted at the back to optimize anchorage in the available bone. Thanks to this clever approach, the need for bone grafting can be avoided. The pain-free All-on-4 provides a fixed, aesthetic prosthesis in a reduced treatment time.

Bone grafting and bone augmentation are two distinct procedures used in dentistry to restore bone density in the jaw, but they differ in their purpose and technique.
Also known as guided bone regeneration, this procedure aims to increase the amount of bone in an area where there has been bone loss. It ensures a solid and stable bone foundation for implants. The process involves filling the space with bone grafting materials, such as synthetic or natural bone grafts, to stimulate bone regeneration.
Bone grafting involves harvesting bone from another part of the patient’s body or using bone from an external source, then transplanting it into the area where there is significant bone loss. This technique is typically required when the amount of available bone is insufficient for bone grafting alone.
In summary, bone augmentation is used to slightly increase bone density before placing affordable dental implants in Porto, while bone grafting is necessary to rebuild a significant amount of bone in cases of severe bone loss. Both procedures aim to restore dental function and aesthetics, but the choice between them depends on the extent of bone loss and the specific needs of the patient. A consultation at our dental clinic in Portugal helps identify the best solution for a complete dental restoration.
Extremely pleased with the courtesy and welcome of the medical staff! Moreover, the care received met my initial expectations. A very pleasant stay overall.
I am relieved to have felt no pain during or after my treatment. No unpleasant surprises for my first visit to Portugal. I highly recommend it, especially for those who are hesitant about leaving France
I can say that I am very satisfied with the aesthetic result, and the treatment is still much more affordable than other quotes I received. I have no regrets about making the trip!
Just one week to get a new smile while enjoying Porto — it was an experience I highly recommend! A big thank you to the medical team for their warm and reassuring welcome. My second visit is scheduled soon.
