How long do stitches stay in after dental bone graft?
Hello, Hope you are doing well. It depends on what type of suture (stitches) they have used. Some of them dissolve on their own (around 10-15days), and some of them require you to visit the provider again. I hope this answers your question. Have a nice day! READ MORE
How long does a bone graft last without an implant?
Hello, Hope you are well after the surgery! Bone grafts usually last longer, I would say a lifetime if it has integrated well to your own bone. There are no reasons to worry about losing the bone due to absence of implant. It might resorb a little due to absence of teeth or denture or any kind of prosthesis. Hope this answers your question.

How often should dental scaling be done?
Hello, Scaling and root planing is repeated only if there is no improvement in pocket depths (gum health). Maintenance is usually done every three months until improvements noticed. READ MORE
How long do teeth hurt after scaling?
Hello, I am sorry about how you feel after the treatment. Usually scaling makes your teeth sensitive and soreness might last for a day or two. For sensitivity you can use any kind of sensitivity toothpaste on your teeth. Leave the toothpaste on the teeth for seven to eight minutes and then brush. Try doing it twice or thrice a day. This will definitely reduce your sensitivity. Please provide feedback if it works for you. Thank you for your question and trust in me READ MORE
