Buccal Cortical Separation and Lateralization for Horizontal Ridge Augmentation

Cairo University (CU)

Status: Completed

Conditions: Horizontal Ridge Deficiency

Treatments: Procedure: Lateralized buccal cortex with xenograft; Procedure: Lateralized buccal cortex with autogenous particulate

Study type: Interventional

Funder types: Other

Identifiers

NCT05286541

OMFS 3-3-9

Details and patient eligibility

About

Cases with horizontal ridge deficiency less than what is possible for ridge splitting were recruited and the buccal cortex was totally separated and lateralized at the desired distance for augmentation

Enrollment: 20 patients

Sex: All

Ages: 20 to 50 years old

Volunteers: Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion criteria

• suffering only from posterior mandibular horizontal ridge deficiency and with adequate inter-arch space to accommodate the future restoration

Exclusion criteria

• Heavy smokers, diabetics, patients with bleeding problems, liver and kidney diseases, bone diseases that can affect bone healing, previous history of any ridge augmentation procedure in the posterior mandible, and those undergoing or planned for radiotherapy or chemotherapy

Trial design

Primary purpose: Treatment

Allocation: Randomized

Interventional model: Parallel Assignment

Masking: Single Blind

20 participants in 2 patient groups

Lateralized buccal cortex group with xenograft

Experimental group

Description:

the buccal cortical bone was osteotomized and separated to be fixed in a lateralized position at the desired distance and the gap filled with Xenograft

Treatment:

Procedure: Lateralized buccal cortex with xenograft

lateralized buccal cortex with autogenous particulate

Active Comparator group

Description:

the buccal cortex was lateralized same as in the interventional group but the gap filled with autogenous particulate

Treatment:

Procedure: Lateralized buccal cortex with autogenous particulate
