Abstract
|
|
|
|
The aim of this case report is to describe the benefits and usage of simple palatal releasing incision. The best advantage of this technique is that it is very simple. The surgical procedure is performed by horizontal incision 5 mm away from the palatal side in the crestal incision line, and then full thickness flap is mobilized to eliminate tension. This procedure may be applied usefully when the volume of graft material is small or ridge expansion is performed, followed by simple suture without periosteal releasing incision. Another advantage is that it is a minimally invasive method for the patients. Four cases are presented to demonstrate the palatal releasing technique and healing process.
