Four months after graft: type 5 bone at lingual site?
Last Updated: Jul 29, 2018
This tooth #29 was extracted in March 2018 and AlloOss graft was placed. CT taken today. Good bone density throughout site, except for lingual area where scan measures negative Hounsfield units. Rest of site is in 300 to 500 H.U. range. Any precautions recommended? Should I redo the graft? Thanks.
