Abstract
In the pursuit of ultimate esthetic implant reconstruction, achieving the ideal vertical gingival height in the crestal area becomes crucial for creating a beautiful emergence profile in the final restoration. Fortunately, Dr. Itsvan Urban has gifted us with a golden tract to follow for vertical bone augmentation, with a special focus on the innovative Periosteoplasty Flap design. This technique revolutionizes the management of buccal flap periosteum, promoting an inverted approach from the apical buccal inner flap periosteum as a new soft tissue harvesting site. Through this advancement, we have discovered a minimally invasive procedure that minimizes donor site discomfort while perfectly adhering to the JUXTA principle in soft tissue augmentation. The Periosteoplasty flap design delivers exceptional results, particularly in vertical soft tissue augmentation, providing an impressive volume of soft tissue. Join us on this exciting journey as we explore this remarkable new resource together!
