An interventional study of horizontal ridge augmentation by decompression technique. and horizontal ridge augmentation by ridge splitting technique using piezosurgery. in Atrophic Ridge, sponsored by Mansoura University. Completed at 1 site in Egypt. Open to participants aged 18 Years to 40 Years, including healthy volunteers. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2023-12-19.
Sponsored by Mansoura University · Not applicable, Interventional, and Treatment
Sixteen patients were selected from the Outpatient Clinic of the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Department, Faculty of Dentistry, Mansoura University for replacement of missed single tooth / teeth in posterior atrophic mandible by dental implant.
Patients' grouping:
Patients were divided randomly into two equal uniform groups as follow:
Group I:
Eight implants were placed in patients of missing single tooth / teeth in posterior mandible with subsequent horizontal ridge augmentation by decompression technique.
Group II:
Eight implants were placed in patients of missing single tooth / teeth in posterior mandible with subsequent horizontal ridge augmentation by ridge splitting technique using piezosurgery.
All patients were evaluated clinically and radiographically at regular time interval immediately, 6 and 12 months after surgery.
828 studies on the registry are indexed under Atrophy; 122 are open to participants now.
This study's enrollment of 16 is below the median of 34 across 603 interventional studies indexed under Atrophy.

Exclusion Criteria:
Eight implants were placed in patients of missing single tooth / teeth in posterior mandible with subsequent horizontal ridge augmentation by decompression technique.
Procedure: horizontal ridge augmentation by decompression technique.
Eight implants were placed in patients of missing single tooth / teeth in posterior mandible with subsequent horizontal ridge augmentation by ridge splitting technique using piezosurgery.
Procedure: horizontal ridge augmentation by ridge splitting technique using piezosurgery.
Instead of a cover screw, a 2-mm healing abutment was used after implant insertion
horizontal ridge augmentation was done using piezosurgery tips and bone expanders
Alveolar ridge width
The ridge width was measured on the cross section view at different time interval from the outer surface of the buccal bone to the outer surface of the lingual bone perpendicular to the line marking the long axis of the implant at implant platform. Changes in alveolar ridge width was measured by subtracting ridge width value after 6 and 12 months from immediate postoperative.
Time frame: 12 months
