Thank you for the question.
Depends of the health status of the mouth, how soon after the extraction the implant was placed , the material of the implant titanium or ceramic zirconia.
In general implant preserves the bone and prevents the recession but if surgery was too involved and no grafting was performed sometimes a slight recession can be observed.
