Extraction Socket Preservation

Tooth extractions reduce bone height and width if not treated at time of extraction.(1) Set your patients up for success by performing socket grafting in simple extraction sites. Creating a scaffolding for bone regeneration will allow for future implant placement, maintain ridge height and may help improve aesthetics.

The NuOss® Plug is a simple option to use that combines 80% bovine bone with 20% bovine collagen in a pre-formed plug. It hydrates easily in the extraction socket with the patient’s blood and may be packed firmly in place. Because of the combination of bone and collagen there is no particle migration.

Why Start with the NuOss Plug?
  • Straightforward Placement – one simple product that is hydrated with the patient’s blood
  • Shape Options for Versatility – Available in two sizes and two shapes: tapered and straight, for optimal fit across a range of extraction sites
