a full thickness flap. Then use a punch approach to remove only enough lingual/palatal
tissue to place an implant. Appropriate for a 1-stage procedure with possible
simultaneous grafting.
MID CRESTAL
Incision is made in the middle of the crest with intra-sulcular on the adjacent teeth. Full
thickness buccal and lingual/palatal flaps are reflected. Can be used for a 1 or 2-stages
procedure, with simultaneous grafting or for grafting alone.
PALATAL/LINGUAL CRESTAL
Used when buccal tissue is deficient to mobilize good tissue quality to the buccal aspect
of the implant perform and with possible simultaneous contour grafting. It can be used
for 1 or 2-stage procedures.
