Maxillary ridge expansion followed by immediate implant Placement: a clinical case report
Journal Title: INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF CURRENT RESEARCH - Year 2016, Vol 8, Issue 2
Abstract
Introduction: Narrow alveolar ridges in anterior maxilla remains a serious challenge for successful placement of endosseous implants. Case Presentation: This case report addresses a surgical procedure for expansion of the atrophic pre-maxillary ridge 2.7 mm wide using the Esset kit. A dental implant was immediately buried post expansion. Discussion: This segmental ridge-split procedure with gradual bone expansion provides a quicker method wherein an atrophic ridge can be predictably expanded and eliminating the need for a second surgical site. This technique also shows that immediate implantation in split ridge of pre-maxillary can be performed.
