I had my teeth cleaned today and asked the dentist about the concept I heard about with getting implants the same visit as the tooth is pulled. He said that it all depends on the bone he finds in the jaw. He does "mini implants" of this type himself when the bone cooperates and sends his patients to the oral surgeon for the extended process when the bone does not cooperate.
