Yes: Bone grafting is very routinely performed in order to allow the implant surgeon to place dental implants. Performing such grafting will help ensure the proper position and size of the implant, which will directly affect the long-term success of the restoration. There are several types of bone grafting procedures which are possible, depending on the quantity of bone reconstruction needed.
