Ridge Preservation

Careful management of extraction sockets after tooth extraction prevents unsightly bone loss and provides a better cosmetic outcome for tooth replacement.  Without a tooth, the bone tends to resorb and diminish with time. 
 
Ridge preservation is a procedure done at the time of tooth extraction.  Bone grafting material is placed into the tooth socket.  This will help maintain the native boney architecture of the site, aiding the ability to place dental implants in the future.
