U.S., March 21 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT06887595) titled 'Linear Micro-Perforation Ridge Split Approach' on March 16.

Brief Summary: The traditional ridge split technique might be performed simultaneously with implant placement, resulting in a shortened treatment time. However, this approach has the potential for serious complications, including buccal bone fracture, prolonged pain or paresthesia, and loss of bone height. Linear Micro-Perforation Osteotomy (LMPO) has emerged as a less invasive alternative, promoting natural bone expansion through controlled micro-perforations in the cortical bone, allowing for ridge widening without extensive grafting. However, the precision required for ...
