Alveolar ridge augmentation in irradiated rabbit mandibles [PDF]
AbstractOral carcinomas are frequently treated with a nonsegmental mandibulectomy plus radiotherapy. Improving the quality of life of these patients depends on the possibilities for dental rehabilitation. The aim of this study was to increase the alveolar ridge height.

Alveolar Ridge Augmentation Using Autogenous Bone Graft and Platelet-Rich Fibrin to Facilitate Implant Placement. [PDF]
The maxillary anterior region is considered to be the esthetic zone of human dentition. Missing teeth in this area leads to severely compromised esthetics and function. Endosseous implants are a viable treatment option in this scenario, but the placement

A retrospective cohort study of how alveolar ridge preservation affects the need of alveolar ridge augmentation at posterior tooth implant sites. [PDF]
The aim of this study was to assess whether alveolar ridge preservation (ARP) can reduce the need of ridge augmentation at posterior tooth sites.

Resorption of retromolar bone grafts after alveolar ridge augmentation-volumetric changes after 12 months assessed by CBCT analysis. [PDF]
In this pilot study, a volumetric analysis of retromolar onlay bone grafts over a period of 12 months was conducted, using repeated CBCT imaging combined with automated image registration.

L- shape symphyseal autogenous bone block for alveolar ridge augmentation in anterior maxilla and mandible, a prospective single arm clinical study [PDF]
Background Alveolar ridge augmentations are challenging procedures in dental implantology, especially in esthetic zone. 3D alveolar defects can be treated by guided bone regeneration (GBR), distraction osteogenesis, or bone blocks.

Alveolar ridge augmentation using the shell technique with allogeneic and autogenous bone plates in a split-mouth design-A retrospective case report from five patients. [PDF]
Atrophic alveolar ridges of five patients were augmented with allografts and autografts on opposite sites, followed by dental implantation. Both augmentation materials led to equivalent bone gains. Allografts did not compromise the clinical outcome.

Double layer graft technique for horizontal alveolar ridge augmentation with staged implant placement: radiographic histological and implant stability analysis–a case report [PDF]
Introduction Horizontal ridge augmentation of a deficient alveolar bone site is performed either simultaneously with implant placement or in a staged approach prior to implant insertion.

Current Concepts in Alveolar Ridge Augmentation
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.

Improving prosthetic prognosis by connective tissue ridge augmentation of alveolar ridge
The contour of edentulous ridge should be carefully evaluated before a fixed partial denture is undertaken. The ideal ridge height and width allows placement of a natural looking pontic which facilitates maintenance of plaque-free environment.

Assessment of clinical outcomes and histomorphometric findings in alveolar ridge augmentation procedures with allogeneic bone block grafts: A systematic review and meta-analysis. [PDF]
Background This systematic literature review aimed to evaluate the efficacy of allogeneic bone blocks for ridge augmentation by assessing block survival rates and subsequent implant survival, including post-surgical complications and histomorphometric ...
