Socket preservation is a crucial step that is often overlooked but significantly beneficial when it comes to ensuring the success of dental implants. At Impladent, we understand the importance of this procedure and how it can impact the long-term outcomes of our patients' dental health. Here are six reasons why socket preservation, including bone grafting and the use of OsteoGen® Plugs, is essential before proceeding with dental implant placement. Shop with us today.

Preservation of Bone Structure

When a tooth is extracted, the socket left behind can begin to deteriorate rapidly. This can result in a loss of bone volume and density, which is essential for supporting dental implants. Socket preservation, through the use of dental bone graft materials like our OsteoGen Plug, helps maintain the bone structure in the area, providing a solid foundation for the dental implant.

Enhanced Aesthetics

The preservation of the socket helps to maintain the natural contours of the jawbone and gum tissue. This is vital for achieving optimal aesthetics when placing dental implants. Without socket preservation, the bone loss can lead to a sunken appearance in the area, affecting the overall look of the smile. Our patients trust us to not only restore their oral health but also to ensure a beautiful and natural-looking result.

Improved Success Rate of Dental Implants

Adequate bone volume and density are essential for the successful integration of dental implants. By preserving the socket and augmenting it with a dental bone graft, we create a favorable environment for the implant to osseointegrate effectively. This increases the success rate of dental implant procedures and ensures long-term stability and functionality for our patients.

Prevention of Complications

Bone resorption in the extraction site can lead to complications during or after dental implant placement. Insufficient bone volume can cause the implant to become unstable or lead to issues such as implant failure, peri-implantitis, or compromised aesthetics. Socket preservation minimizes the risk of such complications and sets the stage for a smooth and successful dental implant procedure.

Shortened Treatment Timeline

Integrating socket preservation into the treatment plan can help streamline the overall process of dental implant placement. By preparing the site in advance and ensuring optimal bone quality, we can reduce the need for additional procedures or interventions post-extraction. This not only saves time for our patients but also promotes faster healing and recovery following the implant surgery.

Long-Term Cost Savings

While socket preservation adds an initial step to the treatment process, it ultimately results in long-term cost savings for the patient. By preserving the socket and maintaining the bone structure, we reduce the likelihood of future complications or the need for corrective procedures. Investing in socket preservation upfront can prevent costly issues down the line, making it a valuable and cost-effective strategy for our patients' oral health.

How OsteoGen Plugs Help With Socket Preservation

OsteoGen Plugs play a crucial role in socket preservation by providing a stable platform for bone regeneration following tooth extraction. These innovative plugs are made from highly purified bone mineral matrix, promoting natural bone growth and regeneration. By placing OsteoGen Plugs in the socket, we create a conducive environment for new bone formation, maintaining the bone volume and density necessary for successful dental implant placement.Impladent relies on the effectiveness of OsteoGen Plugs to support optimal outcomes in socket preservation procedures.
