Comparison of vestibular sulcus depth in vestibuloplasty using standard Clark′s technique with and without amnion as graft material

Abstract: Introduction:A number of materials are used as grafts in vestibuloplasty like mucosal and skin grafts with several advantages and disadvantages. To circumvent the disadvantages of these grafts, biological membranes such as amnion membranes are often recommended.Materials and Methods:The objective of this study was to clinically assess the vestibular sulcus depth in vestibuloplasty using Clark's technique with and without amnion as graft material. Twenty edentulous patients underwent mandibular labial vestibulo… Show more

“…The oral rehabilitation of patients after loss of teeth has made significant progress recently. Lack of an adequate residual alveolar ridge and basal seat severely compromises the success of prosthodontic treatment [ 1 ]. Vestibuloplasty, ridge augmentation, and different types of implants were used to overcome the problems of flat alveolar ridge [ 2 ].…”

“…This is the primary reason why patients often suffer from nonretentive complete prosthetic dentures with functional and esthetic limitations, including difficulties with eating and speaking, pain, loss of soft-tissue support, and compromised facial esthetics. [ 2 3 ]…”

“…Since removable dentures are a common treatment for optimal improvement in function and esthetics in patients with edentulism [ 1 ], pre-prosthetic surgeries—especially vestibuloplasty procedures—play an imperative role in preparing the oral environment for a better denture stability [ 2 ]. Vestibuloplasty surgeries are usually performed to provide adequate depth in labial or lingual vestibular area for denture flange [ 2 ]. Regarding the procedural aspect, several techniques have been proposed such as Kazanjian technique [ 3 ] and lip-switch technique [ 3 ].…”
