Dental Implants are an exciting and effective way to replace missing teeth. One implant can be used to restore a single lost or congenitally missing tooth, or several implants can be used to help with any combination of fixed bridges and removable or fixed dentures. Dental Implants are a great investment, and the results are the closest thing dentistry has to giving you back your natural teeth.\u00a0 In order to provide patients with strong implants, sometimes it is necessary to perform pre-implant surgeries to<\/a>maximize bone support. These include socket preservation, bone regeneration, and sinus augmentation.<\/p>\n

Ridge Preservation<\/h2>\n

When a tooth is removed, it leaves behind a hole, or socket. There are times when an implant can be placed directly into this socket. However, when too much bone is lost, the socket needs to be filled in or rebuilt. This includes using bone grafts and membrane to prepare the site for a stable implant.<\/p>\n\n\t\t
