Comparison of Non Perforated Titanium Foil Over Collagen Membrane in Ridge Augmentation.

Full thickness mucoperiosteal flap was elevated, to expose the alveolar ridge defect. HA graft was placed onto the external defect upon which preformed titanium foil depending on the size and extent of defect was placed. Foil was stabilized with the help of stainless steel screws of diameter 1.5 cm and length varied depending on the depth of the defect. The flaps were approximated and sutured without tension. Periodontal dressing was given.
