it is very difficult to answer whether any socket grafting is required, without looking at the xrays.
In majority of cases , we do not socket graft , in the molar site. We let it heal for 8 weeks and then place the implant. In cases where there is insufficient bone after extraction, there are variety of options dependable on the situation.
1. socket graft
2. guided bone regenaration, etc
This is just an overview as it is dependable on the clinical and radiographic examination.
