Lose bone once my roots come out?

by miss melody

My back teeth has crumbled after having my daughter but I was left with the roots which have recently got infected. The dentist I saw said it was best to have the roots removed but I am a bit worried as I want to have dental implants and have been told that if I have the roots out I may not be able to have the implants as I may lose bone once my roots come out.

The dentist who suggested I have the roots taken out said I should be fine to have implants even if I have had the roots taken out and I can't have them done within a years time as I have plenty of bone there.

I have no idea what to believe? I don't want to have my roots out and then not be able to have the implants as I can't afford to have them right away and will have to save for them.

can you please advise?.

Many thanks
Aasha.
