Implants with little bone, in Carabanchel
It is treatable. And the cost is stated in full from the start.
Lack of bone: what it means in time and money
Rebuilding bone before placing an implant adds a stage to the treatment, and with it time and cost. Hiding that until the patient is halfway through is the practice that does most to erode trust in this trade, and we do not follow it.
How much longer it takes
Depending on the technique, four to eight extra months for the graft to mature before the implant goes in. In some cases the regeneration and the implant happen in the same operation, which shortens the calendar considerably.
If your case needs regeneration, it appears on the original quote with its cost and its timescale.

Cases other clinics rule out
Severe bone loss has a solution with the right technique and planning.
-
Decided on the 3D scan
We measure the bone actually available before proposing any technique.
-
Without giving up aesthetics
Bone reconstruction also shapes the final aesthetic result, and is planned with it in mind.
At this clinic
Bone regeneration without surprises
The CT scan says whether a graft is needed before anything is signed. On that basis the quote is closed in full, including the graft where it applies.
We do not start surgery until the patient knows how many stages the treatment has and what each one costs.
- Bone volume assessed before the quote.
- Cost and timescale of regeneration set out from the start.
How we approach a case with little bone
-
Volumetric diagnosis
CBCT and measurement of the bone available at each position. This is where we decide whether to regenerate, lift or change the anchorage.
-
Planning the technique
The procedure is chosen and the outcome simulated digitally, including the final position of the prosthesis.
-
Surgery and follow-up
Guided surgery and more frequent post-operative checks than usual, because regeneration needs monitoring.

Common questions
Frequently asked questions about this treatment
01 What happens if I do not have enough bone for implants?
It is either regenerated or an alternative anchorage is found. Guided bone regeneration, sinus lift, grafting or zygomatic implants anchored in the cheekbone: the technique is chosen by measuring the bone actually available on the 3D study.
02 Another clinic told me I am not a candidate. Is a second opinion worth it?
Yes. It is the most common reason for consultation in this area. Many cases were ruled out because they required a technique that clinic does not perform, not because they had no solution.
03 What are zygomatic implants?
They are longer implants anchored in the cheekbone rather than the upper jaw. They make it possible to rehabilitate upper arches where hardly any bone is left, avoiding extensive grafting and shortening timescales.
04 Does bone regeneration make treatment much longer?
It depends on the defect. In some cases regeneration happens in the same surgical session as implant placement; in others a preliminary stage of several months is needed. You are told from the outset, in the treatment plan.
05 Is surgery with regeneration more painful?
Recovery usually involves more swelling than a straightforward implant, controllable with the prescribed medication. Using PRGF, obtained from the patient’s own blood, helps healing to be faster and more comfortable.
