Dental Bone Graft in Tunisia
A dental bone graft is often essential before placing an implant when the jaw lacks sufficient bone volume. Caused by old extractions, periodontitis, or long-term use of removable dentures, bone atrophy can be corrected through advanced regeneration techniques. At Implant Dentaire Tunisie, these procedures are performed with CE-certified graft materials at prices 60% lower than in France or the UK.
Autologous graft
Bone is harvested from the patient themselves (chin, jaw ramus). The most integrative solution: 100% biocompatible, no rejection risk. Ideal for significant bone defects.
Collagen membrane
Combined with bone substitutes (Bio-Oss, Geistlich), the membrane guides bone regeneration (GBR). It prevents soft tissue colonisation in the regeneration area and promotes quality healing.
Healing duration
Depending on the grafted volume: 3 to 6 months before implant placement. For a sinus lift, 4 to 6 months are recommended. Radiographic monitoring confirms bone maturity.
Success rate
Preparatory bone grafts achieve a success rate of 95 to 98% at our clinic. Material quality and surgical precision are the key factors behind this result.

How Your Bone Graft Works
A cone beam CT scan (CBCT) precisely measures available bone volume. Our implantologist creates a personalised treatment plan including graft type, materials, and healing schedule.
Under local anaesthesia, bone materials are placed and stabilised with fixation screws if necessary. A collagen membrane is placed to guide regeneration. Procedure duration: 45 to 90 minutes depending on complexity.
After 3 to 6 months of radiographically verified healing, the implant is placed in perfectly regenerated bone. This second visit can be combined with provisional crown placement depending on the case.
How long does a dental bone graft take?
A simple bone graft takes from 45 minutes to 1.5 hours depending on type (localised addition, sinus lift, or block graft). The healing period is 3 to 6 months before implant placement.
Is a bone graft painful?
The procedure is performed under local anaesthesia and is painless. Moderate pain and swelling may occur in the first 2 to 4 days, managed with standard painkillers. Most patients resume activities within 48 hours.
How much does a bone graft cost in Tunisia?
A simple bone graft costs €320 in Tunisia, compared to €800-1,500 in France. A sinus lift is offered at €500 (vs €1,500-3,000 in France). All materials and consultation are included.
Is a bone graft always necessary before an implant?
No. A graft is only necessary in cases of insufficient bone. A 3D CT scan (CBCT) determines whether your bone volume is sufficient for direct implant placement. About 30-40% of patients do not need a graft.
What materials are used for the bone graft?
We use CE-certified materials: Bio-Oss by Geistlich (xenogeneic substitute), collagen membranes, or autologous bone harvested from the patient. None of these materials are of GMO origin.
