Ridge augmentation in Unident Clinic
About the clinic
Ridge augmentation at Unident Clinic in Tirana, Albania, restores the natural shape of the jaw to support dental implants. This procedure is led by Dr. Igli Mëcuku, an oral and maxillofacial surgeon with specialized research in bone defect repair. The clinic serves over 3,000 patients every year, focusing on oral surgery and advanced implantology.
Advanced Bone Regeneration Methods
The clinic uses the Guided Bone Regeneration (GBR) technique to rebuild lost tissue. This method involves placing autologous or synthetic bone material in areas where the jaw has thinned. A protective membrane is then applied over the site to help natural bone grow without interference. This approach is common after a tooth extraction or when infections have caused bone loss. It makes sure there is enough volume to hold a dental implant securely in place.
Specialized Surgical Care
Dr. Igli Mëcuku leads the surgical team at Unident Clinic. He is the founder and chief doctor with a background in oral and maxillofacial surgery. Dr. Mëcuku has conducted postgraduate research specifically on reinforced membranes used for alveolar bone defects. He has also authored scientific publications on these advanced bone reconstruction methods. His expertise helps patients who need a stable foundation before proceeding with tooth replacement.
When to Consider Ridge Augmentation
Ridge augmentation is often necessary for patients who have experienced bone resorption due to trauma or long-term missing teeth. The procedure helps prevent further bone loss and restores the aesthetic contour of the gums. You may need this treatment in several situations:
- Before dental implant placement to provide a strong base for the new tooth.
- Immediately after tooth extraction to preserve the existing bone height and width.
- Following jaw trauma to repair damage to the alveolar ridge.
- After chronic infections that have worn away the natural jaw structure.
