Key Anatomical Factors for Predictable Ridge Preservation and Augmentation
The management of ridge alterations that take place following tooth extraction is of great interest for implant dentistry. The aim of this presentation is to demonstrate the pivotal role of the ridge/defect anatomy in the clinical outcome of ridge preservation and augmentation procedures. Clinical studies presented describe the key anatomical features of the basal bone, alveolar process, and edentulous ridge. The minimum amount of bone tissue for an esthetic and functionally successful implant is of paramount importance in implant treatment, and as a consequence the relationship between the anatomy of a bone defect and the outcome of ridge preservation or augmentation renders the best clinical approach for dealing with the post-extraction bone loss.
