Dental Implants After Tooth Extraction in Woking

Facing a tooth extraction can be distressing, but planning for its replacement before removal ensures a smooth transition back to a healthy smile. North Lane Dental Practice provides advanced post-extraction dental implant protocols for patients visiting from Woking, preventing socket collapse and accelerating your recovery.

When a tooth is removed, the surrounding jawbone naturally begins to shrink within weeks. By placing an immediate dental implant directly into the extraction socket, or performing socket preservation bone grafting, we protect the structural volume of your jaw ridge. Digital CBCT scanning prior to extraction allows our surgeons to evaluate infection levels, bone quality, and optimal fixture trajectory.

Located at 38 North Lane in Aldershot with free on-site parking, our clinic is conveniently positioned for patients across Woking. Whether you require immediate implant placement on the day of extraction or planned delayed placement, our clinical team ensures minimal discomfort and optimal long-term success.

Dental Implants in Woking

Can a dental implant be placed at the exact same time a tooth is extracted?

Yes, this is known as immediate implant placement. If the extracted tooth has no acute active infection and the surrounding bone walls are healthy, an implant can often be inserted immediately into the socket, saving months of treatment time.

What happens if my extraction site has already healed for months or years?

We routinely place dental implants in healed extraction sites. If natural bone resorption has occurred since the tooth was lost, a simple bone graft can rebuild sufficient bone width and height to anchor your new implant securely.

Why shouldn’t I wait too long after extraction to get an implant? +

During the first 6 to 12 months after extraction, up to 50% of alveolar bone width can be lost. Acting promptly prevents the need for extensive bone reconstruction.
