Summary

two groups of patients both have alveolar bone deficiency in anterior maxilla, one group will be subjected to khoury bone augmentation with conventional flap the other with vestibular shifted flap

Conditions

  • Anterior Maxilla Alveolar Bone Deficiency

Interventions

PROCEDURE

vestibular shifted flap for bone augmentation

The procedure begins with preoperative preparation, including patient positioning in a semi supine position with appropriate head support, induction of local anesthesia, and meticulous surgical site sterilization. * Full thickness Vestibular flap and 2 horizontal releasing incision are made (Key Concept: The vestibular shifted flap provides additional flap length by translating vestibular mucosa coronally while preserving keratinized tissue and blood supply) * Flap elevation: Full thickness flap in the Donor site * Using piezoelectric device, thin cortical bone blocks (1-1.5 mm thick) are harvested. * Blocks are carefully shaped into flat "plates." * The shell Graft placed, adapted and fixed with microscrews to restore desired horizontal dimension . • The space between the host bone and the fixed cortical plates is filled with bone particles. * Tension free bilayered suturing.
