Abstract

Introduction: Fulfil the optimum objectives of implant dentistry, there are numerous methods available for effective soft and hard tissue augmentation to present ideal bone volume and quality. The strategy is mostly determined by the severity of the defect and the particular procedures to be carried out for the implant or prosthetic rehabilitation. especially in the anterior esthetic zones.
Aim of the study: Assess alveolar ridge augmentation clinically and radiographically by using cone beam Computed tomography after placing sticky bone covered by Concentrated Growth Factors Membrane (PRF) in anterior esthetic zone.
Materials and Methods: Ten patients presenting with Seibert Class I ridge classification (labio-palatal anterior maxillary residual alveolar width ranged from 3-4mm) received horizontal augmentation using Sticky Bone covered by CGF membrane (PRF). CBCT scans were taken preoperative, 3 months and after 6 months to measure horizontal bone gain and bone density.
Results: Clinically, all patients showed normal soft tissue healing. Radiographically horizontal bone gain at 3 months postoperatively ranged from 2.13-3.39 mm with a mean±S.D. of 2.86±0.38 mm, At sixth month, bone gain ranged from 2.07-3.35 mm with a mean±S.D. of 2.84±0.39 mm.At the third month, bone density ranged from 851.01-883.15 HU with a mean±S.D. of 868.51±11.07 HU, At the sixth month, bone density ranged from 1013.72-1198.12 HU with a mean±S.D. of 1096.36±54.44 HU.
Conclusion: Horizontal ridge augmentation using sticky bone covered by CGF membrane (PRF) is a simple technique and can increase the quality (density) of the newly formed bone and enhance the rate bone formation.
