METHOD FOR MAKING PLASTIC REPAIR OF ALVEOLAR PROCESS OR ALVEOLAR PORTION OF PARTIALLY TOOTHLESS JAW Russian patent published in 2005 - IPC

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: method involves making two incisions on atrophied region of alveolar process or alveolar portion on the same side with mouth vestibule directed from one tooth to the other one in parallel to each other 2-4 mm far from each other. Each incision has beginning and end 1-1.5 mm far from dental cervix. Trapezoid incision is done on alveolar process or alveolar portion on the side close to oral cavity and a flap is built with its base turned towards the alveolar edge. Periosteum and mucous membrane are separated from bone via the produced incisions from the vestibular side and oral cavity side, forming tunnel in this way. Cortical plate of alveolar process or alveolar portion is perforated with spherical bore form vestibular side, from alveolar edge side and from oral cavity side. Resorbable membrane strip containing hydroxyapatite is introduced into the built tunnel from the oral cavity side. Some quantity of paste, containing hydroxyapatite grains, required for filling defect, is introduced into space between bone and membrane by means of syringe.

EFFECT: improved cosmetic results.
