Ridge Augmentation Comparing the Clinical and Histologic Healing of a Cancellous Block Allograft Plus a Barrier Membrane With and Without Primary Closure
This study is designed to compare the clinical and histologic results of ridge augmentation
with and without primary closure over the barrier membrane. The hypothesis is that there
will be no difference in crestal ridge width between the two groups.
