Abstract

Purpose: This clinical case describes a successful use of a non-resorbable membrane and mixture of autogenous particulated bone with anorganic bovine bone-derived mineral (ABBM) in a severe posterior mandible alveolar defect. Case report: A combined vertical and horizontal alveolar ridge augmentation was successfully achieved. Detailed clinical steps were described and demonstrated. The patient was rehabilitated with implant supported fixed partial denture with no pink ceramic. This two-staged procedure provides the amount of horizontal ridge width and vertical height to successfully place in the correct position the implants and achieve long term results. Conclusions: Multicenter, randomised clinical trials are necessary to compare this procedure with other potential clinical solutions.
