What is it about?
Reactive soft tissue was left in the fresh sockets and 3 months later dental implants were placed in the same alveolar sites. Bone volumes were measured before extraction at 3 months and at 3 years and than compared

Why is it important?
Three dimensional radiological examination confirmed no bone loss around dental implants both in maxilla and in mandible
Perspectives
Better not remove reactive soft tissue from fresh sockets, it will help you in case dental implants are planned!
