Summary

Khoury technique, which employs autogenous bone blocks harvested from the patient, has been widely used for horizontal and vertical ridge augmentation. This method introduces critical limitations, including the technical complexity, morbidity associated with donor site harvesting, such as infection, neurosensory disturbances, and post-operative discomfort

This clinical case series aims to demonstrate how customized pours zirconium shell could be an alternative technique for ridge augmentation to overcome the limitations of Khoury shell technique.

Conditions

  • Horizontal Ridge Deficiency
  • Deficient Alveolar Bone

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Zirconia shell technique

Customized Zirconia membrane will be printed as a porous shell and will be used as a non resorbable membrane for horizontal ridge augmentation of deficient posterior mandibular region.
