What is a Socket Preservation Procedure?
Socket preservation is a specialized technique performed immediately after tooth extraction to prevent bone collapse and maintain the extraction site’s natural dimensions. This procedure uses bone grafting materials and barrier membranes to preserve the socket, creating an ideal foundation for future dental implant placement.

If you have any questions about socket preservation, we’ve got answers.
Socket preservation must be performed immediately at the time of tooth extraction for maximum effectiveness. Waiting even a few days significantly reduces the procedure’s ability to prevent bone loss.
The preserved socket typically heals within 3-4 months, after which dental implant placement can proceed. This timeline is often shorter than waiting for natural healing without preservation.
While not required for every extraction, socket preservation is highly recommended when future implant placement is planned or when maintaining facial support is important for aesthetic reasons.
