Ridge Augmentation
Reconstruction of a jaw ridge too narrow or too short for a dental implant, rebuilding lost width/height after tooth loss, trauma, or infection.
Based on precise CBCT measurements, graft material — sometimes with titanium mesh or reinforced membranes for larger defects — is placed over the deficient ridge, protected with PRF membranes. After 4–9 months, the rebuilt ridge is verified and implants placed with a surgical guide.
Patients told they "don't have enough bone," denture wearers with flattened ridges, and patients with trauma/gum-disease/failed-surgery defects.
- Turns implant-"impossible" cases into candidates
- Restores facial/lip support
- Creates a stable long-lasting implant foundation
- Digitally planned so grafting is targeted.
CBCT quantifies the defect in millimeters for a tailored graft, and later confirms new bone volume before guided Straumann implant placement.
