Localized defects of the alveolar crest are deformities that impair prosthetic restoration of the damaged ridge area, causing esthetic, phonetic, and oral hygiene complications. Among the alternatives that have been proposed to restore the damaged ridge area and dentition to normal form, function, and esthetics, the procedures that involve ridge augmentation with soft tissues have been widely accepted. The present clinical report describes a novel surgical procedure to treat these deformities. (Int J Periodontics Restorative Dent 2004;24:280–287.)
