Journal Title: International Journal of Dental Science and Innovative Research (IJDSIR) - Year 2019, Vol 2, Issue 2
Abstract
AIM: The aim of this study was to evaluate the ridge split-crest technique with piezotome for immediate implant placement in edentulous deficient region of maxilla and mandible by assessing the crestal bone loss and implant success rate. Materials and Methods: Study included 10 patients who received 11 implants (LASAK implants) with Ridge split surgical procedure using piezotome with a follow up period of 6 months. Clinical assessment included the crestal bone loss, ridge width around implant, and implant success rate. Results: Eleven implants in 10 patients were evaluated between 2016 and January 2018. Success rate of implants at the end of follow-up was 91%. Bone ridge was measured and compared at final examination showing a mean ridge expansion of 7.1 mm. Conclusions: Ridge Split-crest with piezotome can be considered an effective and safe procedure for deficient edentulous region in maxilla and mandible providing adequate bone width and stability.
