Bone grafts and other bone substitutes

Severe alveolar bone loss is one of the indications of periodontal disease. This book gives a wide variety of bone grafts available to augment the lost tissue. Compensation of the bone height, width and depth restores its form and function which in turn improves the prognosis of the dentition altogether. Various disciplines of dentistry have utilized bone grafts for procedures like placement of implants, sinus augmentation, GBR and other advanced surgical techniques.
