Alveoplasty, Bone Grafts and Abutements?

[Travie87]

What is a Alveoplasty, Bone Grafts and what in the world is a Prefabricated Abutement?

 

[Gordon]

An alveoplasty is a surgical procedure used to smooth and reshape a patient's jawbone in areas where teeth have been extracted or otherwise lost.
A bone graft is something put in to augment or replace missing bone.
A prefabricated abutment is a bit of machined metal that fits into an implant.

I assume you're having some implant work done?

Ok Thank You Gordon. The Dentist said I could save My front 6 teeth but in the end they would come out in the end so I told Him to extract them all. I will keep Y'all updated for sure on My journey. It all begins on May 24th.
