Buccal Cortical Separation and Lateralization for Horizontal Ridge Augmentation

Not Applicable

Completed

• Conditions: Horizontal Ridge Deficiency
• Interventions: Procedure: Lateralized buccal cortex with xenograft; Procedure: Lateralized buccal cortex with autogenous particulate

• Registration Number: NCT05286541
• Lead Sponsor: Cairo University

Brief Summary

Cases with horizontal ridge deficiency less than what is possible for ridge splitting were recruited and the buccal cortex was totally separated and lateralized at the desired distance for augmentation

Arm && Interventions

Group	Intervention	Description
Lateralized buccal cortex group with xenograft	Lateralized buccal cortex with xenograft	the buccal cortical bone was osteotomized and separated to be fixed in a lateralized position at the desired distance and the gap filled with Xenograft
lateralized buccal cortex with autogenous particulate	Lateralized buccal cortex with autogenous particulate	the buccal cortex was lateralized same as in the interventional group but the gap filled with autogenous particulate

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Change in horizontal bone gain	six months after the operation	the net average bone gain (in millimeters) was calculated: by calculating the difference between the immediate post operative bone width measured on the Immediate CBCT and the six months bone width measured on the six months CBCT

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Bone area percent	Six months after the operation	histomorphometric analysis of core biopsies was done at the time of implant insertion to determine the bone area percent at the implant sites
