Bicon: You can get an implant without any of these. Look up BICON implants and ask around to find a practice which will accommodate you.

Bone graft: speak to your surgeon. There are specific reasons for choosing graft materials. Some are more successful than others depending on the reason for the graft. Your surgeon should be able to discuss the pro's con's with you.
