If I become pregnant after bone graft, will I ruin it to wait till after the baby is born to have implant placed?

Question

If I become pregnant after I’ve had an extraction and bone graft, will it mess up my bone graft to wait until after the baby is born to have the implant placed?

Brian Stoute, DDS · Answer

It is best to wait until after delivery for elective dental procedures. The bone graft will be stable and ready when you are able to proceed with treatment.

Eric Johnson, DMD · Answer

Bone grafts typically last years, so waiting 9 months or less should not give you any problems. Waiting until after baby is safest to avoid the medications and anesthetics.
