Clinical Trial

Completed
View on ClinicalTrials.gov →
Summary
This clinical trial evaluated horizontal ridge augmentation in the posterior mandible using subperiosteal tunneling with enriched bovine bone graft matrix (sticky bone). The minimally invasive procedure addressed horizontal bone deficiencies without flap elevation, while preserving periosteal integrity and reducing patient morbidity. Ten patients underwent clinical assessment of wound healing, pain, and neurosensory changes over 4 weeks; radiological evaluation of CBCT-measured bone width at immediate postoperative and 6-month follow-up; and histological analysis of bone core biopsies obtained at implant placement to evaluate remodeling and graft integration.
