My dentist referred me to a periodontist / implant specialist to have a 3-D X-ray of the root of the tooth.
While making the appointment, I asked about the implant placing stages and was surprised to hear that after the tooth extraction, the bone graft needs to be performed.
My questions regarding the bone graft:
Does everybody need a bone graft? Can your own body generate the bone during healing?
What material was used in your implant placing?
Did anybody here have their own bone harvested from your body for a bone graft?
