Abstract
Background: The bone split procedure is a technique used to increase the width of narrow ridge for possible simultaneous implant placement. Objective: In this report, we will describe a case of horizontal ridge augmentation using ARST and simultaneous implant placement in left mandibular molar region. Results: In this report, we describe a ridge split technique and immediate implant placement for a 56-year-old posterior left mandible edentulous patient referred to us for implant treatment. Conclusion: A successful prosthetic rehabilitation was obtained following the healing phase. This approach leads to restoration of function with a predictable outcome.
