Bone Morphogenetic Protein
Bone morphogenic protein is an isolated protein that induces specific cells in our body to form new cartilage and bone. During surgery, the BMP is soaked onto and binds with a collagen sponge. The sponge is then designed to resorb, or disappear, over time. As the sponge dissolves, the bone morphogenic protein stimulates the cells to produce new bone. The BMP also goes away once it has completed its task of jump starting the normal bone healing process.
Since there is no need to harvest bone from the patients’ hip for BMP, recipients were spared donor site pain. Complications from the graft harvest site are also eliminated with the use of bone morphogenic protein.
Dr. Green would be happy to discuss all grafting options with you at the time of consultation.

I was in the hospital for two day with a tooth infection that had the whole side of my face swollen to where I couldn’t see. Dr. Green came in and right away took care of me. I got discharged and went straight over there and immediately the staff was ready to go, I waited maybe two seconds and that was it. I was very nervous and anxious but knew I was in good hands. Got done w the procedure and immediately felt 100 x better. I highly recommend Dr. Green and his staff for your dental work. All I can say is WOW!

As a first time patient and first time teeth removal, I had no idea what to expect. I can honestly it was much easier than I ever imagined. Dr. Green was fantastic, and I had very little pain. The staff was also very friendly. I would go to Dr. Green again with no hesitation and also would recommend him to my friends.

i must say I was very nervous, because I heard so many different things about getting my wisdom teeth removed. That it would be painful, that I would wake up in the middle of the procedure and etc. They were all wrong, aside from the normal pain, it was a breeze. I went in that morning and didn't even have to wait, the procedure was explained to me step by step and I have no complaints at all. Dr. Green and his staff were s helpful and made sure that I left with all my questions answered and made sure if I has any other questions, they were only one call away. If I ever need anymore work done in the future or know of any family or friend members that need their wisdom teeth removed, Dr. Green would be my first choice.
