I was told my upper jaw doesn’t have enough bone and I would first need to have a bone graft. I was then told I would obviously have to wait for the bone graft to heal.

I was told my upper jaw doesn’t have enough bone and I would first need to have a bone graft. I was then told I would obviously have to wait for the bone graft to heal. I forgot to ask how long the healing process would take.

Can anybody tell me how many weeks or months would it take for the bone graft in my upper jaw to heal?

Ask your dentist, it depends on the type of bone graft and your own dentists protocol.
