Ridge Augmentation Meet for Esthetics: An Interdisciplinary Approach

Journal Title: International Journal of Current Research and Review - Year 2017, Vol 9, Issue 2

Abstract

Aim: Dentoalveolar defects occur due to maxillofacial trauma, accidents, traumatic tooth extraction, advanced periodontal diseases, which results in loss of alveolar ridge and attached mucosa. These defects when occur in anterior region needs hard and soft tissue augmentation. Though many techniques exist for effective soft and hard tissue augmentation, approach is mainly based on the extent of the defect and specific procedures for prosthetic rehabilitation. Bone graft along with GBR is valuable treatment option for ridge augmentation followed by Fixed partial denture. Case Report: This article presents case report of hard tissue augmentation in seibert`s class 3 alveolar ridge defect followed by Fixed partial denture with Gingival colored porcelain in missing Right maxillary lateral incisor region. Discussion: Increase in the density of the defected area can be achieved by bone grafting with GBR. Thus it paves the way for replacement of the lost tooth along with function and esthetics. Conclusion: The clinical and radiographic findings of this case suggests that bone grafting procedures combined with resorbable collagen membrane followed by esthetic metal ceramic fixed partial denture can be an acceptable alternative to removable partial denture, implant therapy.
