Abstract
Implant placement is getting space day by day. However, in every case, we never get the ideal condition of alveolar bone for implant placement. Alveolar bone loss is seen due to periodontitis, tooth loss, tooth extraction, and periapical infection, etc.
 Resorption of alveolar bone varies from person to person and side to side. It has been noted that the size of the residual ridge shrinks more quickly within the first six months.
 There is new demand for reconstruction of the alveolar ridge for implant placement. Various techniques are available for increasing the ridge height and width by using bone graft, membrane, etc., one of these is the vertical ring procedure.
 Bone ring technique (BRT) has been described as a one-stage approach to restore vertical ridge height defects, in which an autogenous or allogeneic bone block graft is used and the implant is placed simultaneously.
 This review aims to focus on the importance of the implant placement, consequences of complete edentulism, the problem with removable partial denture (RPD) placement, as a result of bone loss in fully edentulism patients, and the use of vertical ring technique for the implant placement.
