If a tooth that had per issues is extracted is that site better for implants because the perio is gone?

Dental Implants: There has to be good quality & sufficient bone in order to place a dental implant. If a tooth is extracted due to periodontal disease (or an infection from any cause) there may\may not be sufficient healthy bone present. Bone grafting can add that necessary bone if necessary. Removing a periodontally diseased tooth stops the disease process in that area, but proper home care is still needed after.

Have enough bone?: If you lost a tooth due to periodontal disease, then you must have some bone loss in the area. Removing the tooth may clear up the infection but you still need enough sound bone to place an implant. If needed, a bone graft, in most cases, can be performed at the time of the extraction or at a later date. Usually matters like this are discussed prior to extraction. Simply ask you dentist!

Depends on bone left: The main qualification for placing an implant depends on the amount of bone present after a tooth is extracted. If the area has sufficient width and depth of bone it is a good site for an implant. Normally a tooth that has perio issues, had these issues due to bone loss. Therefore in some cases it may end up needing a bone graft at the site to support an implant.

Implant: An implant cannot be placed where there is an infection. There needs to be healthy bone for the implant to be successful.

A qualified yes: Removing tooth allows infected tissues to heal, but the longer the tooth is missing the more bone will resorb. Also note it is possible to have,gum infection around implant. Please discuss these issues with your Dentist.

Extraction : Is a cure for periodontal disease. If there is sufficient bone in the area you can have an implant. See an Oral Surgeon for an evaluation.
