Abstract:

Bone augmentation has been extensively used in dental implant treatments, but its effect on severely atrophied alveolar ridges is poor. On the basis of the literature review, we divide the commonly used bone augmentation surgery into four categories based on the different position of supporting structures, summarize the advantages and disadvantages of each bone augmentation technique, and elaborate on its application prospects in combination with clinical explorations. We believe that the indirect central support in the second subclass of the second category has broad prospects, and a new bone augmentation surgery based on the concept of “indirect central support” is considered to be designed. The exploration, development, and application of central support bone augmentation could increase the number of bone augmentation procedures, providing new surgical strategies for bone augmentation.

Key words: bone augmentation, supporting structure, central support, dental implant
