What is Socket Preservation?

Imagine pulling out a tooth and leaving the empty socket to fend for itself. This natural process often leads to bone loss around the area, making future implant placement challenging. Socket preservation comes to the rescue by:

Filling the empty socket: Immediately after tooth extraction, your dentist expertly fills the gap with biocompatible bone grafting material. This material mimics natural bone, stimulating growth and preventing shrinkage.

Maintaining bone volume: By preventing bone loss, socket preservation preserves the ideal foundation for future implant placement, ensuring optimal stability and success.

Simplifying future procedures: With sufficient bone present, implant placement becomes a smoother and more predictable process, potentially requiring less complex or invasive procedures later.

Why Choose Socket Preservation?

The benefits of socket preservation extend far beyond simply making future implant placement easier. Here are some compelling reasons to consider this proactive approach
