Socket Preservation Therapy

Socket preservation therapy is a procedure performed after tooth extraction to preserve the bone and prevent bone loss in the jaw. This therapy helps maintain the structure and stability of the jawbone, making it easier to place dental implants in the future. At The Orchid Dental Clinic, our expert team uses advanced techniques to ensure optimal outcomes for socket preservation.

Why is Socket Preservation Important?

Maintaining the bone structure after tooth extraction is crucial for several reasons:

• Prevents Bone Loss: Socket preservation helps prevent the resorption of bone that can occur after a tooth is removed.
• Maintains Jaw Structure: Preserving the bone helps maintain the natural contour and structure of the jaw.
• Facilitates Future Implants: By preserving the bone, socket preservation makes it easier to place dental implants in the future.

The Socket Preservation Process

At The Orchid Dental Clinic, we ensure a comfortable and effective socket preservation process:

• Tooth Extraction: The procedure begins with the careful extraction of the tooth, ensuring minimal trauma to the surrounding bone.
• Grafting Material Placement: After extraction, a grafting material is placed into the socket to preserve the bone.
• Healing and Monitoring: The area is then sutured, and the healing process is monitored to ensure successful integration of the grafting material.

Benefits of Socket Preservation Therapy

Undergoing socket preservation therapy offers numerous benefits, including:

• Maintains Bone Structure: Prevents bone loss and maintains the natural jaw structure.
• Improves Aesthetics: Helps in preserving the facial aesthetics by preventing bone resorption.
• Facilitates Implant Placement: Makes future dental implant procedures more predictable and successful.
