When a tooth is extracted, the alveolar bone will sustain injury. Most of the initial bone volume is lost following the healing phase after extraction. Rehabilitation must start as soon as a tooth is missing, mainly because the alveolar bone is severely damaged during the tooth extraction, particularly in the buccal region where the tooth is removed. Dental implant is one method of replacing lost teeth. One of the most important elements influencing the clinical result of dental implants is a change in the dimension of the alveolar bone. Several bone-grafting techniques, such as socket preservation techniques, have been developed to increase the volume of bone throughout the healing phase after tooth extraction.
