Three-Dimensional Printed Customized Titanium Mesh for Mandibular Augmentation

Not Applicable

Completed

• Conditions: Alveolar Bone Loss
• Interventions: Procedure: Conventional ridge augmentation (Control); Procedure: 3D customized Titanium Mesh (Study)

• Registration Number: NCT05198011
• Lead Sponsor: Hams Hamed Abdelrahman

Brief Summary

Completely or partially edentulous patients suffer from resorption of the alveolar bone, they always seek rehabilitation which becomes challenging. Alveolar ridge augmentation is widely done now to offer these patients functional and esthetic restoration. Many techniques have been proposed to obtain good results of ridge augmentation. Titanium Mesh (TiMe) is widely used, also digital and computer-guided surgery now plays an important role to improve the techniques and results in ridge augmentation procedures.
