    Area of Science:

    • Dental prosthetics
    • Oral surgery
    • Periodontology

    Background:

    • Edentulous ridges often present cosmetic concavities and irregularities.
    • Restoring aesthetics in these areas is crucial for patient satisfaction.
    • Existing methods may have limitations in addressing complex ridge deformities.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe a novel technique for augmenting concavities and irregularities in edentulous ridges.
    • To evaluate the efficacy of combining temporary acrylic resin restorations with connective tissue autografts for aesthetic enhancement.
    • To provide a solution for challenging cases where cosmetic results are paramount.

    Main Methods:

    • A combined approach utilizing temporary acrylic resin restorations and connective tissue autografts was employed.

  • The technique focuses on augmenting deficient edentulous ridge areas.
  • Surgical and prosthetic steps were integrated to achieve desired contour.

    • Main Results:

    • The described technique effectively augmented concavities and irregularities in edentulous ridges.
    • Unattractive ridge defects were corrected, leading to improved cosmetic appearance.
    • The combination of materials provided a predictable method for aesthetic restoration.

    Conclusions:

    • Temporary acrylic resin restorations combined with connective tissue autografts offer a viable method for correcting edentulous ridge defects.
    • This technique is particularly beneficial in cases where aesthetic outcomes are critical.
    • Further studies may explore long-term stability and patient-reported aesthetic satisfaction.
