I have a patient who had 3 implants installed 4 months prior. Bone grafts were placed around each implant. The recent CBCT shows that all 3 bone grafts have failed. The patient is asymptomatic and the implants are not mobile. I would like to retain these implants. Would it be advisable to lay a full thickness flap and place another bone graft? Or would it be better to explant the implants, re-graft the sites and then install the implants after the grafts osseointegrate?
