Can you get bone graft done more than once?

Question

I've had the second molar on bottom left pulled and bone graft done about 4 years ago but did not do implant. Now there is not enough bone to successfully implant.

Yes, you can have a bone graft done more than once. It would be a bit different this time and may take a little longer to heal, but it can be done.

Moris Aynechi, DMD, MD · Answer

AS you already know the more time passes the more bone loss will occur in a grafted site.  Depending on your particular situation, it is possible to do multiple bone grafting procedures on a site in order to achieve the ideal result.  Keep in mind the procedure becomes more technical as multiple treatments are rendered.

its an error to just bonegraft, you need to have a combined procedure called bone distraction, implant setting and bone grafting if not you will have the same results due to bone grafting will reabsorb but if you are in expert hands you will have great solutions because that area it’s always complex due to the mandible anatomy
