  • Title: Ridge reconstruction with hydroxylapatite. Part 2. Ridge reconstruction based on residual anatomic structure.
    Author: Mercier P.
    Journal: Oral Surg Oral Med Oral Pathol; 1988 Jun; 65(6):641-52. PubMed ID: 2840619.
    Abstract:
    The second part of this article shows how the problems of atrophy and resorption of the residual ridge can be corrected with hydroxylapatite to obtain ideal ridge form and maximal prosthetic rehabilitation. The high degree of efficiency of the system is based on a thorough knowledge of the anatomic structures involved, on the use of the cephalogram as a guide, on the correction of adverse intermaxillary relationships and on the recourse to a staging of procedures when required.
