Abstract

Although chronic kidney disease (CKD)has been considered a global publichealth problem,
itseffect on dental implanttreatmentis largely unknown. Atrophic or severely deficient
edentulous single tooth dental implant sites require osseous augmentation before any dental
implant placement.However, due to complications of CKD, bone grafting procedures, and
dental implant treatment for renal failure patients and patients with nephrectomy is more
challenging. This article presented a successful case of vertical ridge augmentation using
DFDBA allograft “Bone ring” along with simultaneous implant placement in a patient with
nephrectomy.
