Socket Preservation

Bone Grafting Following Tooth Extractions in Matawan, Ocean Township, Freehold, & Old Bridge

Are you in the process of having a tooth removed or are you planning to have a tooth implant put in?

If you’ve had a dentist who has directed the patient to an oral surgeon and suggested the preservation of your socket and socket preservation, you’re at the right spot: our oral surgeons with board certification are among the top of the best in their state!

Do you know what socket preservation is?

Socket preservation is a tiny implant of bone we insert into the socket following the extraction of the tooth.

The bone graft is placed over the tooth’s root, and we attach the collagen membrane to the graft, to promote the growth of bone.

What is the best time to preserve sockets?

The ability to leave a socket for healing naturally after a tooth extraction is an option. As leading dental surgeons we frequently try to save the socket using the use of a bone graft in order to prepare the location for the placement of dental implants.

A socket bone graft is used to fill the tiny gap in your gums. Left behind after the tooth’s roots are removed.

The importance of Socket Preservation

The potential risk of the socket healing by itself instead of having it preserved is that you risk the blood clot that naturally forms within the socket that protects the socket is knocked loose.

If this occurs patients typically experience dry sockets, which can be a painful condition.

Another issue that could occur when a socket is left to heal itself naturally can be that it heals improperly. Which can cause deformities within an alveolar bone ridge. Implant placement can be more difficult when bone deformities are in the socket.

What’s the point of socket protection?

The thing that most people don’t know is that teeth stimulate the jawbone via chewing.

The pressure of a bite encourages the development of bone tissue. That is increasing the size of the jawbone and maintaining its health. When we take teeth, the degrading of the bone begins as soon as the tooth is no longer present to stimulate.

The socket preservation procedure is used to avoid loss of bone and to build the ridge. Which aids in maintaining the natural form of the jaw.

The preservation of sockets prevents the loss of bone and provides the following benefits to your dental health.

  • An ensconced jawbone keeps the shape of the face to prevent a droop in your smile as a result of tooth loss.
  • Alignment of the teeth can be maintained because teeth don’t shift occur when there’s no gap or space between teeth.
  • An implant that is not complication-free requires adequate bone mass.
