Resumo |
Dentists are often faced with extensively resorbed mandibular ridges with shallow buccal vestibule and high insertion of the mentalis muscle in relation to the crest of the ridge, causing the displacement of the prosthesis. Vestibuloplasty techniques aim at eliminating the muscle insertions, reposition the mucosa, and increase the area chapeável, giving more stability to the prosthesis. Among the techniques to deepen the vestibule are submucosal vestibuloplasties by secondary epithelialization and with mucosal and skin grafts. We will discuss vestibuloplasty by secondary epithelialization with emphasis on the so-called modified Kazanjian technique. This technique provides an appropriate result and does not require hospitalization, additional surgery at the donor, or prolonged periods without the use of prosthesis. © 2013 by Mutaz B.
