No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of autologous fat as a grafting material for soft tissue volume augmentation of localized horizontal ridge defects in humans.

Conditions

  • Alveolar Bone Loss

Interventions

OTHER

Autologous fat grafting

A fat graft will be aspirated from the abdomen under local anaesthesia and processed using the Microfat grafting technique. Afterwards the fat graft will be injected in the previously created pouch at the recipient site. Then the pouch will be closed using interrupted sutures 5-0 vicryl.

OTHER

Sub-epithelial connective tissue graft

A subepithelial connective tissue graft of a size that corresponds to that of the defect will be harvested from the palate using the trap door technique. The donor site will be closed using cross horizontal sling sutures and interrupted sutures 4-0 vicryl. Subsequently, the graft will be inserted in the previously created pouch at the recipient site and secured to the flap using vicryl sutures 5-0. Then the pouch will be closed using interrupted sutures.
