Summary

Completely or partially edentulous patients suffer from resorption of the alveolar bone, they always seek rehabilitation which becomes challenging. Alveolar ridge augmentation is widely done now to offer these patients functional and esthetic restoration. Many techniques have been proposed to obtain good results of ridge augmentation. Titanium Mesh (TiMe) is widely used, also digital and computer-guided surgery now plays an important role to improve the techniques and results in ridge augmentation procedures.

Conditions

• Alveolar Bone Loss

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
PROCEDURE	3D customized Titanium Mesh (Study)	approach for planning and augmenting atrophic posterior mandibular ridge using a pre-customized TiMe on a 3D model. The 3D surgical model will be virtually created from a cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) and printed using Fused deposition modeling (FDM) machine. The 3D model will be then used to contour the TiMe in accordance with the needed amount of augmentation then will be used to help pack and contour the graft material.
PROCEDURE	Conventional ridge augmentation (Control)	the conventional technique of ridge augmentation using Titanium Mesh
