Synopsis

The use of dental implants in oral rehabilitation of partially and fully edentulous jaws have become a routine treatment modality with reliable long-term results. Implant placement necessitates sufficient amount of width and depth of alveolar ridge. Common methods to restore bone deficiency include guided bone regeneration, ridge split and autogenous onlay bone grafts. Ridge split technique is performed to widen a narrow ridge to place adequate diameter implants. Onlay bone grafting is a procedure where a block of autogenous bone is secured at the bone defect area to regenerate bone at the host site.
