Ridge augmentation for improved implant placement

Abstract
The placement of endosseous dental implants is often hampered by unfavorable anatomy of the alveolar bone. Guided bone regeneration and bone grafts have been used to reconstruct deficient alveolar ridges in preparation for dental implants. A case report is presented to illustrate two approaches to successful management of different alveolar defects.
