The surgeries will be selected from the following procedures:

  • Sinus lifting through the osteotomy site
  • Maxillary Alveolar ridge expansion using split-cortical technique
  • Mandibular Alveolar ridge expansion using Pedicled Sandwich Plasty (PSP)
  • Connective tissue graft
  • Block graft
  • And just like implant placement, bone grafting participants will work on their flapping techniques, suturing techniques and will perform multiple alveoloplasty procedures
