A member asked:
Is bone grafting recommended when someone has lost bone across his entire jaw? or is it warranted only when the bone loss is localized?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No two: No two people have the same requirements. You need to be seen by a gum/bone specialist who is best able to evaluate the extent and severity of your gum disease, and help you choose the right treatment.
