INTRODUCTION • SEVEN IMPORTANT QUESTIONS TO THE SOCKET PRESERVATION • EVIDENCE OF SOCCET PRESERVATION
INTRODUCTION • After tooth extraction, the residual alveolar ridge generally provides limited bone volume because of ongoing, progressive bone resorption. • Healing events within postextraction sockets reduce the dimensions of the socket over time.

INTRODUCTION • SEVENN IMPORTANT QUESTIONS TO THE SOCKET PRESERVATION • EVIDENCE OF SOCCET PRESERVATION
THERE ARE 7 IMPORTANT QUESTIONS TO THIS DISCUSSION: 1. Whatisextractionsocketpreservation? 2. Isit a difficultprocedure? 3. Whatisthebenefittothepatient? 4. Whataretheconsequencesofnotgrafting? 5. Whoshouldbeperformingthisprocedure? 6. Whatisthebenefit to thedentist? 7. Issocketpreservationthestandardofcare?
