Yes tooth extraction and bone grafting can be done on the same visit, this will minimise ur requirement of anaesthesia multiple times, dosage of medication required and also give good results. Later u can go for implant surgery.

Yes you should go for tooth extraction and bone graft on same appointment...so that you can go for dental implant later as the bone condition is improved

The main purpose of doing bone grafting is to preserve the bone for the dental implant after the extraction of the tooth .
Extraction and bone grafting has to be done in same surgical procedure .
Main thing is to preserve the existing native bone - which requires most atraumatic removal of tooth .
Next Steps
Visit a specialist to preserve the bone for future .
Health Tips
At young age better to save teeth then extract. But if unavoidable then better way to replace is by Dental Implant
