[quote=Anonymous] Implants are wonderful for certain areas. You would not want one placed too far back. Wisdom teeth, in general are not replaced, your second molar I could see replacing. You want your molars to chew with. If the rest of your teeth are sound, and you get regular dental care, I would see no problem with getting an implant. If your only worry is food getting caught in the extraction area, rest assured that this area will heal fairly quickly and no "hole" will be left behind. After the ext. you will see a surgeon, who will place the implant. But there will not be a tooth there, you will have what is called a healing cap. This will remain in place for about 6 weeks, depending on the dentist.[/quote]
