For Professionals
This page is for dentists looking beyond traditional dental bone grafting materials.
Whether you’re searching for a better material or responding to a patient’s request, we’re here to help you evaluate the science directly.
Our Articles, CE Courses, and Products are intended to help you modernize your practice and become a more science-driven clinician:
Whether you’re here because you found us on social media or because a colleague mentioned us, this page is your starting point. Everything we present is grounded in biology, published research, and clinical outcomes. If you’re ready to take a deeper look, follow one of the three links below:
The Problem: Grafts Without Biology
Many dentists use bone grafts without understanding what happens at the microanatomical level. Dental school didn’t teach bone biology, and the profession suffers because of it.
The Echo Chamber
Our profession strongly promotes evidence-based dentistry. Yet, most U.S. grafts are allografts, despite being a 50-year-old technology not supported in the literature. Claims persist not from science, but from repetition.
Understanding the materials you use in bone grafting is far more important than you think.
The survival of a dental implant and the health of the bone it is placed in is entirely dependent on the bone graft.
Clinicians should be are aware of the effects that different bone graft materials have on the quality of bone they produce.
