The bone graft is a non event as far as I'm concerned as it was done in conjunction with the implant placement. The only issue I had was occasionally spitting out bone fragments for the first few days. Kind of freaked me out for a bit as I wasn't sure what it was.
My oral surgeon had a VERY thorough list of post-op directions that noted that the particles might feel like sand. I haven't noticed any. They also tell you that after 3 weeks you're only 5% healed.
To me, the bone grafts were "insurance". I wanted to make darn sure the implants stuck.
