About the clinic

Autogenous bone grafting at Clinica Dental Raices in Los Gigantes, Spain, helps patients with low jawbone density prepare for successful dental implants. This procedure creates a stable foundation by using bone material to regrow the natural jaw structure. Patients traveling to this boutique clinic in Tenerife can save up to 60% compared to prices in the UK or Ireland.

Bone Grafting Options and Methods

The clinic provides two main levels of bone grafting based on the amount of bone loss. A minor bone graft treats small defects and often happens during the same appointment as the dental implant placement. This saves time and reduces the number of surgeries. A major bone graft is for severe bone loss and requires a separate procedure before the implant can be placed. The medical team uses highly regulated materials designed to help the body build its own natural bone safely.

Healing and Recovery Timeline

Recovery periods depend on the size of the graft and the individual healing rate of the patient.

Minor bone grafts usually require 3–4 months of healing before the implant can support a new tooth.
Major bone grafts typically need 4–6 months to heal before the doctor can place the implant.
Temporary teeth are usually provided so patients maintain their smile throughout the healing process.

These timelines allow the new bone to integrate fully with the jaw, which improves the long-term success of the dental implant.

Patient Experience in Tenerife

Clinica Dental Raices operates as a boutique facility focusing on personalized care for every visitor. The multilingual team speaks English, Spanish, and Arabic to help patients understand every step of their treatment. Before any surgery, the team conducts a full assessment using X-rays or CBCT scans to map the jaw structure. This careful planning makes sure bone grafting only happens when it is truly necessary for the patient's health. The clinic’s location allows international patients to combine their dental care with a relaxing holiday in a warm climate.

If you need to restore your jawbone for dental implants, you can leave a request on Bookimed to receive a personalized treatment plan.

I had an emergency with an old implant from my home country and they were very kind to see me the day after I called. The contact person quickly understood the problem and didn’t hesitate to help. The appointment was right on time. The clinic was easy to find, it is in a central location, it is brand new and the equipment is modern. Doctor Alaa was highly professional, she clearly communicated the state of my situation and the available solutions. I am dealing with dental specialists for 30 years now for a complicated situation and it’s rare when I feel completely comfortable. Dra. Alaa cabinet was one of the places where I did. Thank you, good luck and I’ll be back :)

I had a root canal treatment at Raices dental clinic. Everything went perfect from booking my appointment with Aidan to having the treatment. It was explained what to expect very clearly and what the cost would be. The treatment took over an hour; the clinic have a TV on the ceiling in the procedure room which I watched with headphones and made the time fly by. Thank you.

This clinic is both high quality and affordable, and it was super easy to book what I needed. It’s very modern, you can even put some headphones on and watch Netflix if you are (like me) a bit nervous of the dentist! However the highlight of the clinic is definitely the people that run it. Dr. Alaa takes her time to explain everything so you are always informed. She works very efficiently and you never feel confused at any stage. Alaa and Aidan, thank you so much, I wish you every success in the future!

I popped into Clínica Dental Raíces while visiting Tenerife and was really impressed. The clinic has such a calm and welcoming atmosphere! The dentist took the time to explain everything clearly, put me completely at ease, and answered all my questions. I was able to be seen straight away, and the prices are much better than in the UK and everything felt high quality.
