Ridge Expansion by Osseodensification

Completed
Conditions
Horizontal Ridge Deficiency
Interventions
Device: Densah burs
Registration Number
NCT04748952
Lead Sponsor
University of Baghdad
Brief Summary

A prospective observational clinical study guided by the guidelines of Strengthening the Reporting of Observational Studies in Epidemiology (STORBE) in 2014, that conducted to assess amount of ridge expansion obtained by using Dansah burs with simultaneous implant placement.

Detailed Description

In this study, 40 implants will be installed in osteotomy sites prepared by Densah burs (osseodensification preparation technique) for patients with horizontal bone deficiency based on radiographic findings (CBCT).

Alveolar ridge width will be measured intraoperatively before and after osteotomy site preparation to assess the amount of ridge expansion. Implant stability will be measured immediately after implant installation and 16 weeks later.
