Popis: | This clinical report describes guided bone augmentation for treatment of a facial maxillary alveolar bone defect to enhance the esthetic result for an all-ceramic fixed partial denture (FPD). A combination of decalcified freeze dried bone allograft and resorbable human pericardium, in conjunction with cortical channel expansion, was used for the augmentation process to eliminate a secondary surgical procedure. Post-operative examinations showed improvement in the alveolar bone contour. The regeneration of the missing osseous structure was accomplished to support the future esthetic soft tissue contours. This osseous regenerative technique significantly increased the functional and esthetic outcome of the final FPD by restoring the alveolar ridge defect to its original dimension. |
