Abstract :Aim: Dental implant applications are most common treatment methods for rehabilitation of edentulous jaws. The severe bone deficiency could not be allowed implant therapies. Various augmentation methods could be used for reconsruction. In this case report tent-pole and onlay grafting techniques were performed in case at edentulous maxilla with radiological evaluation at 6 months follow-up. Materials and Methods: CBCT (Cone beam computed tomography) were obtained from patient. Extraction of all teeth and explantation of 2 implants were planned because of periodontal problems. The ramus onlay grafting was decided to apply for both anterior side of the maxilla and tent pole technique for right premolar area of maxilla. Results: It was observed 3.5 mm horizontal bone gain at the right maxillary anterior side, 4.8 mm horizontal bone gain at the left maxillary anterior side and 3.4 mm horizontal and 6.8 mm vertical bone gain at right premolar side after 6 months. Conclusion: Tent pole and onlay grafting methods are successful treatment options for alveolar ridge augmentation. Nevertheless, autografts could not be enough in every case. In this situation, xenografts and allografts applications with tent pole technique could be preferred as an effective method for alveolar ridge augmentation both horizontally and vertically.
