Study Overview
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.
