Post-surgery, the grafted bone tissue fuses with the existing bone through a process called osseointegration. This process typically takes several months and is essential for the success of dental implants, as it creates a stable foundation for the implant to anchor. While bone grafting is a highly successful procedure, it requires a period of healing, and patients may experience some swelling or discomfort during the recovery process. However, the results often lead to improved bone structure and the ability to receive dental implants or other restorative treatments. Following the recommended aftercare guidelines can enhance the healing process and minimize complications.
