Dental implants need a solid foundation, and not everyone has enough healthy bone to support one from the start. If bone loss has occurred, a bone graft can help rebuild the area so your implant has the strength it needs to last.

Swipe to learn why a bone graft is sometimes the first step.

Wisdom teeth recovery looks a little different for everyone, but knowing what to expect can help you feel more prepared.

The first few days are typically when swelling and soreness are most noticeable. As healing progresses, swelling begins to ease, your diet can gradually expand, and everyday activities start to feel more comfortable again.

This day-by-day wisdom teeth recovery timeline breaks down what you may experience during the first week, along with simple tips to help protect the surgical sites and support healing.

Where does the bone used for a bone graft actually come from?

Depending on your needs, bone graft material may come from your own body, a human donor, or another source such as bovine bone. While that might sound surprising, each type of graft has a specific purpose.

🦷 Autogenous grafts use your own bone and contain living cellular components that can support new bone formation.

🦷 Allogenic grafts use carefully processed donor bone that acts as a scaffold for your own bone to grow into.

🦷 Xenogenic grafts typically use highly processed bovine bone and also provide a framework for new bone growth.

So, why might you need a bone graft in the first place? Bone grafting can help rebuild areas where bone has been lost and create the support needed for treatments such as dental implants.

The type of graft recommended depends on your anatomy, the amount of bone needed, and your overall treatment plan. Your oral surgeon will determine which approach is appropriate for you.

Choosing who places your dental implant is an important part of planning for long-term success.

If you’re considering dental implant surgery, here are four questions worth asking:

• What surgical training does my provider have?
• What happens if I need bone grafting?
• What anesthesia or sedation options are available?
• How will my implant placement be planned?

As a board-certified oral and maxillofacial surgeon, Dr. Ed Alessandrini has extensive surgical training in the bone, nerves, and anatomy of the face and jaws.

His experience also includes anesthesia, bone grafting, and complex implant cases where rebuilding the jawbone may be part of preparing for implant placement.

At Atlantic Oral, Implant & Facial Surgery, advanced imaging and careful surgical planning help Dr. Alessandrini develop an approach based on each patient’s individual anatomy and needs.

When a tooth is lost or extracted, the jawbone can begin to change over time. Without the stimulation from the tooth root, bone in that area may shrink, and nearby teeth can begin to shift.

Planning early can make a big difference. Depending on your needs, socket preservation, bone grafting, or dental implant placement may help maintain the jawbone and support future tooth replacement.

See what can happen after tooth loss and why timing matters.
