Inferior Alveolar Nerve Transposition Using a Piezosurgery Device with Simultaneous Implant Insertion

Implant rehabilitation of the edentulous mandible tends to be complicated by the presence of bone atrophy. In cases of moderate to severe mandibular atrophy the bone height between the alveolar crest and inferior alveolar nerve (IAN) is small and sometimes limited to only a few millimeters. Implant...
