Abstract:
Lateral ridge augmentation is a standard surgical procedure that can be performed prior to (staged) or simultaneously with implant placement. The decision between a simultaneous or staged approach involves considering multiple variables. This paper proposed a decision-making process that serves as a guideline for choosing the best treatment choice based on the available evidence and the author's clinical experience.
