The patient has suffered an accident as a child and as a result have had his tooth knocked out. The many years of having a missing tooth at the site has resulted in the deterioration of bone volume in all dimensions as well as the closing of the tooth gap. As a result, orthodontic treatment […]

The patient lacks the volume of bone in the upper anterior region of the mouth to adequately support two traditional dental implants. Therefore, multiple autogenous bone block grafts were harvested from the patient’s lower jaw (donor site) and transplanted and fixated to the anterior esthetic region of the mouth (recipient site). Two dental implants were […]

The patient is congenitally missing a central incisor and as a result there is space closure resulting in insufficient space for an ideal size tooth at the site. In addition, since the patient is born without this tooth there is also deficient quantity of bone at the same site. Therefore, orthodontic treatment needed to be […]

The patient has been involved in an accident that had occurred in the patient’s youth affecting two teeth in the front of the mouth. As a result, one tooth was removed while the second tooth remained but lacked the bone to support it. Over time, the space has “closed up” due to lost of the […]

A patient wishes to have teeth for the upper anterior segment of the mouth but does not want to resort to wearing any type of removable denture. Unfortunately, the width of the anterior alveolar bone is only 2-3 mm thick and will not be able to accommodate any of the desired implant sizes. As a […]

The patient has been missing 2 teeth in the posterior region for many years now and as a result the bone volume has deteriorated in all 3 dimensions. In order to replace the missing teeth with dental implants the area will first require bone augmentation for implant support. As a result, bone is harvested and […]

This patient has a vertical and horizontal bone deficiency in the lower right quadrant of the mouth and wishes to replace his missing teeth with dental implants. There needs to be enough bone support for the implants in this area in order to prevent the restorative implant crowns from being “too tall” which will not […]

The bone of the alveolar ridge is too thin to place 3 dental implants in the proper and ideal anatomical location of the lower jaw. By not being placed at the correct location there will be harmful offset loads (stress factors) resulting in biomechanical overloading to the prosthesis and implant leading to the eventual failure […]

The width of the alveolar ridge is insufficient for an ideal dental implant placement of size 5.0 x 10 mm at this particular location in the mouth and as a result will require bone augmentation in order to restore the ridge with this choice of implants. The proper positioning of the implants are extremely crucial […]

A patient lacks the necessary bone to support dental implants in the upper left quadrant and therefore requires a bone augmentation procedure. A bone bone block graft is harvested from the patient’s lower jaw (donor site) and 2 bone block veneers (aka bone shields, bone shells, bone blades or bone plates) are created from it. […]
