The patient has a very thin alveolar ridge (4 mm) that was not able to allow placement of the desired size dental implants without some type of bone augmentation procedure to increase the bone width or thickness. Therefore, a ridge splitting procedure was performed involving cutting the bone beginning from

Due to many years of having missing teeth at the proposed dental implant site the bone has deteriorated. The is the direct result of the lack of internal stimulation within the bone which results in the loss of bone volume which disallows the placement of traditional sized implants in this

An insufficient width and thickness of bone at the alveolar ridge makes it impossible for the placement of a traditional sized dental implant. Therefore, a ridge splitting procedure is performed along with a ridge expansion for the localized implant site resulting in adequate stability and prolonged implant health as a

The proposed implant site does not have adequate bone width or thickness for the placement of a traditional sized implant; therefore, a bone augmentation procedure must be performed. For this patient, a ridge splitting procedure is selected and performed at the very narrow space followed by the expansion of the

A missing tooth for a prolonged period of time has lead to the deterioration of bone volume at the site resulting in an hourglass appearance at the crest of the ridge. Therefore, a ridge splitting procedure (RSP) with expansion is performed to increase the width of the ridge to accommodate

This patient has been missing most of his upper teeth for many years now and as a result does not have an adequate amount of bone for dental implants to fulfill the criteria of a full-arch implant prosthesis. Therefore, bilateral sinus lifts or sinus elevations, ridge splitting procedures, and bone

This particular patient has a severely resorbed alveolar ridge for the upper arch and therefore needs bone augmentation (additive) before any dental implants could be placed. First, the bony ridge is expanded in width by means of a long-span ridge splitting procedure (RSP) followed by the placement of 6 dental

The patient is presented with many deficiencies but would like to achieve his goals with the least amount of procedures. The patient would like to have a full-arch implant prosthesis and does not mind if it’s removable or fixed (screw-retained). Without the patient’s desire of  a bilateral or unilateral external

A female patient lacks the necessary bone thickness (alveolar ridge width) to support regular size dental implants. Therefore, a ridge splitting procedure (RSP) is performed so that 6 standard platform (regular size) endosteal or root-form implants could be placed and not resort to using narrow platform (narrow size) implants which
