Measures to promote bone augmentation may be necessary if sufficient bone is no longer present for embedding the implants in the jaw. Our patients often need this if they have had a tooth extracted by a method not in accordance with our BIOHEALTH PROTOCOL. By using immediate implantation according to our Biohealth Protocol, bone augmentation measures can nearly always be avoided. The immediate implantation procedure increases the bone’s metabolism and activates the meridians, and the implant heals more quickly in the extraction socket.
