The processing of xenografts will result in different clinical responses.

Clinicians may decide to use a xenograft to reconstruct an osseous defect. Xenografts are processed differently depending on manufacturer.The purpose of this article is to review processing methods and the clinical ramifications of these processing methods on the behavior of xenografts. The difference in surface morphology of xenografts based on processing is reviewed. When used for grafting the extraction socket, ridge contour preservation or reconstruction, xenografts may result in different resorption rates over time.
