DOI: 10.3390/genes14030595
Abstract: (1) Background: Ridge augmentations either horizontal (HRA) or vertical (VRA) in the posterior mandible are very challenging regenerative procedures. To attain and retain tension-free primary closure, buccal periosteal and mylohyoid muscle releases should be performed.… read more here.
