Bone Grafts Ask The Dentist Edward Leventhal

Question:
Implants without bone grafts? I had a bridge at one time but it came loose not long after it was put in. I was told it came loose from the bone.

I have always had issues with the upper part of my mouth. I have had upper dentures for years now and a lower partial. I would love to do away with them but not sure i am a good candidate. I also have sinus problems.

I also have dental phobia...all I have to do is smell the office. I've have had some pretty bad experiences. ...Visitor from MD

Answer:
It is often possible to place implants without bone grafts, but I cannot answer you realistically without examining you.

For dental phobics, Ativan can be used which allows for a more tolerable experience.
