Q. How long should I wait after the dental root extraction before the implant could be inserted? I am a generally healthy 37 year old and the X-ray of the area was normal. Would a pregnancy be a contraindication for the procedure? Are Straumann implants a good choice? Thank you very much. 

A. You should wait until after the baby is born. That should allow enough healing time. I use the Ankylos implant system but Straumann in the right hands, is good too
