Bone Grafts and Substitutes in Dentistry: A Review of Current Trends and Developments.
TL;DR: Bone grafting is the only solution to reverse dental bone loss and is a well-accepted procedure required in one in every four dental implants as discussed by the authors, however, after tooth loss, bone resorption is irreversible, leaving the area without adequate bone volume for successful implant treatment.
