Current Concepts in Alveolar Ridge Augmentation
Journal Title: Journal of Dental Health and Oral Research - Year 2024, Vol 5, Issue 1
Abstract
Ridge augmentation is a predictable procedure that can correct the defects caused by bone loss in areas with missing teeth. More importantly, this procedure allows the chance to return the natural contours of the soft tissues that existed before the loss of the tooth. It is done in patients with insufficient bone height and width by using various bone substitute materials and bone graft procedures where the successful placement of dental implants is difficult with regards to maintaining an ideal pathway and avoiding important anatomical structures. This review article will be carried out to describe the various techniques of ridge augmentation.
