If you were being treated for dentures, why would the dentist do bone grafting on the teeth being pulled?

bone grafting has become the standard of care after dental extractions. Although , some patients may not want to replace the extracted teeth immediately.    Over the years we have learned without proper ridge preservation after extractions , the jaw will lose height, width and density once the tooth is removed . If a patient does not elect to have the grafting done,  and their desires to replace the missing teeth changes  later it becomes a more difficult procedure for implants , aesthetics in bridges Ext.    No dentist wants you to lose your teeth, but if you do bone grafting will help ensure you have a healthier jaw and more choices if you later desire to place an implant or bridge.  Good luck bone grafting is important 

Bone grafting in the extracted socket site is very important to preserve the surrounding bone height. No mater what procedure you are getting, denture or bridge, bone grafting will make sure that you are set up for a positive outcome.
