If you need a tooth removed it should be discussed that you lose 4-6mm of bone height and width in the first year after tooth loss. If you want implants and want to avoid expensive bone grafting ask your dentist to do socket grafting or guided tissue regeneration to help you save on the time, effort and money of more surgeries later.
