Summary

The aim of this study is to evaluate clinically and radio-graphically the efficiency of "Tent- Pole "grafting technique for reconstruction of anterior or posterior mandibular ridge defects using synthetic bone graft and Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRF) membrane.

Detailed description

Various techniques have been described for the reconstruction of large vertical defects before implant placement . In this study we assessed the efficacy of tenting the periosteum and soft tissue matrix with titanium screws maintaining a space for the graft material in order to augment large vertical defects of mandibular ridge (anterior or posterior region) using data from 12 patients . After 6 months we assessed the increase in bone height and density.

Conditions

• Jaw Deformity

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
PROCEDURE	Tent Pole Technique	* All patients were operated under local or general anaesthesia according to the case and patient tolerability. * The oral cavity was prepared by 0.12% chlorhexidine mouthrinses solution\* for thirty seconds. * Full thickness incision down to the bone with blade no.15. * A periosteal elevator was used to perform mucoperiosteal flap. * Gentle elevation of the flap * Fixation of the screws over the alveolar ridge with about 5 mm of the screw threads will be exposed * Bone graft was mixed with the patient blood and placed to cover the screws completely. * PRF membrane was be placed over the grafted sites. * Repositioning of the flap and suturing with 3/0 black silk suture material
