So we all know that premolar extractions cause bone resorption, thus the face becomes more recessed, and narrow/downswung. This would also be true for wisdom teeth there is no logic that would make this not true.
The question is: if bone resorbs when you remove teeth, would it build back up (thus returning to its former state) if you get some form of implants?
This quality post and discussion here seems to suggest that an implant would not be the same thing as a real tooth. It does not quite answer if bone would grow back (as a result of the extraction) from what I read but it suggests to me that the answer is no. https://the-great-work.org/community/postid/1678/
here is another good thread I found on the topic: https://looksmax.org/threads/questi...gonial-width-and-maxillary-projection.133822/
