Abstract Among alveolar ridge augmentation techniques, a ridge-split procedure demonstrates many benefits, including lack of a second donor surgical site, the risk of inferior alveolar nerve injury, additional pain and swelling, etc. Lateral bone augmentation through the ridge-split works at its best in the localized lateral bony defect intended for a one or two implants and where the ridge is vertically intact. In this article, authors present a detailed description of the implant-driven technique of alveolar ridge-split procedure in small and large bone deficiencies, in maxilla and mandible, supplemented by multiple photographs, accentuating the need for a careful manipulation of the thin ridge based on knowledge of precise surgical principles. A need for the training and operator's experience to perform this type of alveolar bone augmentation is emphasized. |
