The Sleep Shift: Protecting Your Brain When Working Nights in Cebu's IT Parks and Beyond

What are common mistakes patients make after a bone graft procedure?

Some bone graft failures are related to post-surgery mistakes made by patients. The most common issues include smoking, poor oral hygiene, and not following the dentist’s recovery instructions.

After a bone graft, the surgical site needs time to heal and form new bone. Smoking, touching the surgical area, or eating hard food too early can disturb the graft material and interfere with healing.

Patients should carefully follow post-operative instructions to improve the success rate of the graft.
