Alveolar ridge will gradually decrease in volume and change morphologically after tooth extraction. The phenomena in clinical practice are meaningful. It will affect the future clinical procedure difficulties, including conventional prosthodontic rehabilitation or implant-supported prosthesis. Thus it is an important topic of minimizing the degree of ridge resorption after tooth extraction to meet the future appearance and functional needs of denture production. This article will explore the healing pattern of extraction socket and the clinical application of socket preservation.
