Alveolar Ridges Expansion Using Osseodensification Versus Screw Expansion Technique
Dental Implant Failed, Bone Fracture, Bone Infection
About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Dental Implant Failed focused on measuring Dental implant stability, narrow alveolar ridges, alveolar ridge expansion
Eligibility Criteria
Patient's age ≥18 years. Absence of any medical disease that compromise wound healing. patient with good oral hygiene. Narrow alveolar ridge (2,5-5 mm) and the period after tooth extraction is at least 6 months. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Uncontrolled medically compromised patients. 2. Heavy smokers (> 20 cigarettes per day) 3. Patient with parafunctional habits. 4. Local infection at implant site.

Active Comparator
Active Comparator
Screw expansion group
Osseodensification group
threadform screw expanders with special condensing burs for lateralization and compaction of bone while simultaneously placing dental implants
special drills to expand narrow alveolar ridges.These drills share similar advantages with osteotomes in terms of greater tactile sensitivity, faster speed, and low heat generation, all of which help to maintain healthy bone and enhance implant osseointegration.
