Alveolar bone atrophy post-extraction has been well documented in the past years. normal healing event results in a minimal loss of vertical height (around 1 mm), but a substantial loss of width in the buccal-lingual plane (4-6 mm). Alveolar socket preservation is thought to deal with this issue as to prevent the loss of alveolar bone dimensions post extraction in the case of delayed implant placement
