Implant surgery in partially edentulous patients with alveolar bone deficiency

Abstract

The article presents the analysis of possible options of dental implant surgical treatment of partially edentulous patients with insufficient alveolar bone volume in the period from 2008 to 2017 (n=1004). Highlighted are three main options for surgical treatment: a staged approach, including alveolar ridge augmentation, subsequent dental implantation (n=562); dental implantation with simultaneous alveolar ridge augmentation (n=362); using of 'narrow/short' dental implants (n=80). The data on the frequency of intra - and postoperative complications before prosthetics are given. Over the past period, there has been a declining tendency in the number of staged procedures with an increase in the number of simultaneous operations installations of 'narrow/short' implants.
