Bone grafting

Bone grafting is a surgical procedure designed to augment or stimulate bone healing by transplanting bone tissue from one area of the body (autograft) or a donor source (allograft or synthetic material) to another. This technique is commonly employed in orthopedic and dental surgeries to treat fractures, non-unions, and bone defects. The graft serves as a scaffold, providing a framework for new bone formation and promoting the integration of host and donor tissues.

Autografts, often harvested from the patient’s hip or other bones, are preferred for their biological compatibility. Allografts and synthetic materials offer alternatives when autografts are not feasible. Bone grafting plays a crucial role in enhancing bone stability, promoting fusion in spinal surgeries, and addressing skeletal abnormalities, ultimately aiding in the restoration of function and structural integrity.

Dr. Pratik Dhabalia, if specialized in bone grafting, likely utilizes this surgical procedure to address a range of orthopedic conditions. His approach may involve transplanting bone tissue, either autografts from the patient’s own body or allografts/synthetic materials, to promote bone healing, address fractures, or augment bone stability.

Bone grafting is a surgical procedure that uses transplanted bone to repair and rebuild diseased or damaged bones. A bone graft is a choice for repairing bones almost anywhere in your body. Your surgeon might take bone from your hips, legs, or ribs to perform the graft.
