ridge preservation
Failure of a tooth due to periodontal disease or root fracture can cause defects in the supportive bone structure. Due to the high standards of aesthetic dentistry today, to achieve a successful result, a ridge preservation technique is performed at the time of extraction. This is done by the placement of a bone graft (autograft or allograft) into the site and is sometimes combined with a soft tissue graft if necessary
