Abstract

Immediately after tooth extraction, physiological and eventually pathological changes affect the healing of the alveolar ridge. This three-dimensional shrinkage of the alveolar bone is determinant to the subsequent implant placement. Different surgical protocols have been proposed as a way to limit these dimensional changes and hence to optimize implant placement from an aesthetic, patient-friendly and long-term perspective. The evidence-based efficacy of these interventions, the indications and contraindications, and the advantages and disadvantages of the different methods are thoroughly discussed.

Ridge augmentation procedures are frequently performed to compensate the structural changes that occur at the residual alveolar ridge after tooth extraction, which significantly limit bone availability for implant placement. The correct selection and application of the available regenerative techniques and biomaterials are key determinants of success in modern implant therapy. The use of scaffolding biomaterials, growth factors, cell therapy and advanced surgical techniques offers promising potential in the ordinary and challenging bone defects. The evidence-based efficacy of these interventions, the indications and contraindications, and the advantages and disadvantages of the different methods are thoroughly discussed.
