Novel Technique Versus Conventional Subepithelial Connective Tissue Graft in Treatment of Ridge Contour Defects

Recruiting now · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Defect in Alveolar Ridge

In brief

The aim of the study is to clinically and radiographically evaluate and compare two techniques to augment soft tissues: the conventional subepithelial connective tissue graft technique and a novel denuded interpositional pedicled rolled flap technique (DIPRF) These techniques will be used to augment edentulous ridges that are recommended for rehabilitation by an implant or a fixed restoration.
