Modifications of the split bone technique for lateral ridge augmentation

Dental manipulation is often associated with the placement of implants in patients with partial or complete tooth loss. Before implants are placed, the dental surgeon is most often faced with a bone deficit in the alveolar ridge area. With any technique, the main disadvantage of autologous bone extraction is the additional trauma to the patient. Reducing the invasiveness of the surgical steps is particularly relevant in elderly patients with comorbidities [1, 2, 3]. In this article, the authors propose to use bone blocks of allogenic origin when restoring defects of the alveolar ridge of the jaw bones.
