Abstract

Tooth loss associated with systemic factors, pathological and traumatic conditions,
promotes the bone resorption of residual ridges, this, creates functional problems
such as lack of stability and retention of removable dentures as well as aesthetic
and psychological disturbances. These defects vary depending on the amount of
bone loss and soft tissue they reach. At present there are described various
techniques that can correct these defects. One of these is the roll technique which
shows very good results by increasing the size of the alveolar ridge and decrease
aesthetic defects in the anterior area of the maxilla. The aim of this article is to
describe a case of a patient with Seibert bone loss type III, rehabilitated with fixed
partial denture after undergoing a surgical procedure with the roll technique
achieving the stated objectives and providing aesthetic improvement to the patient
and an improvement in their quality of life. It is shown that the technique can be
achieved with predictable results that return aesthetics in areas of high demand
from patients.
