Given that bone needs a physical structure, as well as growth factors, the right grafting product can predictably improve patient outcomes. It provides these elements to ensure healthy bone growth factors; most importantly, minimizing bone loss. Thus, when choosing a bone grafting product, it is crucial to consider several factors regarding the patients themselves, including their age, tobacco use, and co-morbidities, as well as the desired time to re-enter the site for additional work.
Dental practices treat a diverse group of patients. Patients of all ages, lifestyles and health conditions can be in need of bone grafting material to achieve a successful dental outcome. While the bone grafting product will suggest, on average, how long remodeling will take, the patient will ultimately determine how long the healing process takes.
