Evaluation of Neurosensory Function following Inferior Alveolar Nerve Lateralization for Placement of Dental Implants – A Case Report
Abstract: Keeping in tune with recent trends, replacement of missing teeth with implant supported prosthesis is gaining preference over various prosthetic options, i.e., removable partial dentures and fixed partial dentures. This is mainly because in addition to inherent inadequacies in rehabilitation fixed partial dentures include the sacrifice of healthy tooth substance of the adjacent teeth.Implants help us to overcome most problems associated with traditional prosthesis. However, in patients with atrophied mandibles …
