Socket Preservation

It recreates the
natural contour
of the gums

Board-Certified Oral Surgeons

Socket Preservation (Socket Graft) is a common dental procedure often performed at the time of tooth extraction. This procedure helps recreate the natural contour of the gums and jaw that may have been lost due to bone loss from a tooth extraction, or for another reason. 

A Socket Preservation procedure (Socket Graft) is accomplished by placing bone graft material in the tooth socket. It is often done immediately after the tooth is removed to avoid the need for a second procedure later. Next, the gum tissue is placed over the socket and secured with sutures. Once the socket has healed, the alveolar ridge can be prepared for dental implant placement.
