【 摘 要 】

When ridge bone perforations, for any reason, result wider than implant diameter, we may not be able to fix the fixture into bone walls. When this happens it becomes necessary to use a larger diameter titanium cylinder. In this article we propose, instead of using a wider titanium cylinder, the use of mini titanium wedges which can be pushed strongly between implant and bone walls, to keep fixture still while oseointegration takes place.
