Implant Ready Expertise
Sockets preserved by the same experienced team that places dental implants, so your next step is already planned for.
Removing a tooth is just the first step toward a healthier you. Socket preservation protects your jawbone after an extraction and keeps every option open, from a dental implant to simply more time to decide.
The gold standard replacement and the only option that helps retain your natural bone.
A fixed solution that uses the support of neighbouring teeth to bridge the gap.
A quick, cost effective way to restore your smile, in lightweight acrylic or cobalt chrome.
Feeling nervous? Gentle IV sedation can make your extraction completely stress free.
Socket preservation, sometimes called socket grafting, is a simple procedure carried out at the same time as your extraction. We place a specialised grafting material into the empty socket, supporting cleaner, more comfortable healing with fewer complications.
Think of it as a safety net for your smile. Once a tooth is removed, the bone that held it naturally begins to change shape, and neighbouring teeth can slowly drift toward the gap. Preserving the socket keeps the foundations of your smile strong and your choices open, whether that is a dental implant, a bridge, a denture or simply a little more time to decide.
It is not a permanent fix, it is a head start. For the best result we would usually look to place an implant within around six months, and our team will guide you through the timing at your review appointments, in plain English and with no pressure.
Every extraction heals, but how it heals shapes your options later. Here is the difference socket preservation makes at Roseville Smiles.
| Feature | With Socket Preservation | Without Socket Preservation |
|---|---|---|
| Healing | Cleaner, more comfortable healing with fewer complications | Heals naturally, sometimes with more discomfort |
| Bone and gumline | Natural shape supported while the site heals | Bone gradually changes shape after extraction |
| Future implant | Site stays implant ready for around six months | May need additional grafting before an implant |
| Neighbouring teeth | Supported, with less room to drift | Can slowly shift toward the gap over time |
| Time to decide | A few months to choose the right replacement | Options can narrow as the bone changes |
| On the day | Carried out during your extraction visit | No additional procedure on the day |
