    Study Notes

    Preprosthetic Surgery and Ridge Resorption

    • The primary objective of preprosthetic surgery is to prepare an ideal alveolar ridge for successful denture construction.
    • Ridge resorption is more prominent in the mandible due to the thin cortical layer and the direction of the NO forces on teeth and periodontal ligament.
    • Accelerated ridge resorption in the mandible can be contributed by factors such as the direction of NO forces, parafunction, and periodontal disease.
    • Bony changes in the jaws begin to take place after the loss of natural teeth, with the mandible undergoing more resorption than the maxilla.
    • The ideal characteristics of an alveolar ridge for best denture support include being flat, wide, and with a smooth surface.

    Preprosthetic Surgery Procedures

    • Preprosthetic surgery includes procedures such as alveoloplasty, exostosis removal, and nerve repositioning.
    • Alveoloplasty is used to remove bony undercuts, sharp bony edges, and overgrowths.
    • Exostosis removal is used to remove excess bone and improve the contours of the alveolar ridge.
    • Nerve repositioning is used to reposition the nerve to enable successful denture placement.

    Ridge Resorption Classification

    • Resorption of the maxillary alveolar ridge can be classified into three types: flat-ridge form with loss of alveolar process, knife-edge form, and high and narrow form.

    Ridge Augmentation and Vestibuloplasty

    • Ridge augmentation is used to enhance the dimensions of the alveolar ridge.
    • Vestibuloplasty is used to treat inadequate alveolar ridge height by deepening the sulcus.
    • The Vestibuloplasty with tissue Grafting technique involves deepening the sulcus and adding tissue to enhance the ridge dimensions.

    Other Procedures

    • Intraseptal alveoloplasty is used to remove interseptal bone and improve the contours of the alveolar ridge.
    • Tori removal is used to remove large tori to enable successful denture placement.
    • Z-plasty procedures are used to reduce the amount of vestibular ablation after linear excision of a frenum.
    • Frenum removal may be needed for orthodontic or preprosthetic purposes.

    Importance of Preprosthetic Surgery

    • Preprosthetic surgery is crucial for successful denture construction, as it enables the creation of an ideal ridge for denture support.
    • Irregularities of the alveolar bone can lead to difficulties in denture construction if not recontoured before construction.
    • Soft tissue adjustments are necessary to ensure a comfortable and functional denture.
    • Nerve repositioning is necessary to prevent nerve damage and ensure successful denture placement.
