A member asked:
Is it safe to get a dental bone graft if you have lupus or sjogren's syndrome? are there any side effects to having bone graft.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Bone grafting: Dental bone grafting is a very safe procedure and there are usually no side effects. Your dentist or oral surgeon should be aware of your complete medical history and should discuss the risks and benefits with you before the procedure so that you may make an informed decision regarding undergoing the grafting.
