I am a 29 year old male. I want to know what happens if you don't have enough bone for dental implants?

If you don't have enough bone to support a dental implant, the doctor can place bone grafting at the time of implant placement.
Please see a dentist who is specialized in doing advanced surgical procedures such is bone ridge augmentations, bone grafting, or sinus lift procedures. Implants are the best choice for a 29-year-old person.
Your dentist can place bone to aid in the placement of dental implants
There are certain procedures that can be implemented to provide adequate bone for placement of dental implants. However, a cbct scan would be indicated and a consult to determine which procedure will be required.
Hello,
It depends on the situation, but you can usually graft the site to get more bone in place.
Hope this helps.

You could get a bone graft to augment the bone in the area b4 implants are placed.
