If you are having infected dental implants removed, should you get a bone graft at the same time?

Asked By:jwtoomey8 in Brooksville, KY

I am having four implants removed holding a bridge that holds 6 of my front teeth. My periodontist wants to wait until the area heals before doing a bone graft to replace more implants. From what I read on here many of the doctors suggested immediate bone grafts. I don't know what to do. Please advise.
