ITI Treatment Guide, Volume 7: Ridge Augmentation Procedures in Implant Patients: A Staged Approach

With the broadening of dental treatment options and an increasing number of clinicians who provide implant therapy, it is important to ensure that the treatment methods used meet the highest clinical standards. The ITI Treatment Guide series is a compendium of evidence-based implant-therapy techniques and procedures for daily practice. Written by renowned clinicians and supported by contributions from expert practitioners, the ITI Treatment Guides provide a comprehensive overview of various clinical options. The management of different clinical situations is discussed with an emphasis on sound diagnostics, evidence-based treatment concepts, and predictable treatment outcomes with minimal risk to the patient. Volume 7 provides clinicians with the latest evidence-based information on the techniques and materials used for ridge augmentation, specifically in preparation for delayed implant placement. The authors review the limitations and contraindications, explain the recommended surgical approaches, and review the management of complications. Twelve clinical cases demonstrate the planning and treatment principles required to successfully rehabilitate patients with varying degrees of ridge atrophy.
