Anticipated release May 2025. Available in streaming only

According to reports, most dentists don’t graft tooth extraction sockets. When extracting teeth in the smile zone, grafting extraction sockets is a fast, effective, proven, and simple procedure. Usually, the socket defect fills with bone almost to where it was before extraction. The overall esthetic and functional results are enhanced. Although the esthetic areas are the primary need for ridge preservation, other sites, such as third-molar sockets, are also improved.   Let Gordon help you answer these questions:

  • What grafting material is best?
  • Are the new collagen/grafting plugs working?
  • Should a barrier be placed? If so, what barrier?
  • What sutures should you use?
  • How long should you wait for pontic area regeneration before an FPD is placed or the bone matures enough for an implant?

Enhance your current grafting knowledge and make this a reliable and simple procedure in your practice today!
