Ridge augmentation with particulate hydroxyapatite (HA) is compromised by the propensity for the HA particles to disseminate throughout any surgically created space within the tissues. Several techniques designed to overcome this problem have been described, including the use of inflatable tissue expanders. Some of the residual problems related to this technique are attributable to aspects of expander design and surgical technique. This paper which describes a new design of tissue expander which is completely submerged in use, also describes in detail the surgical technique associated with it. Preliminary results are discussed.
使用颗粒状羟基磷灰石（HA）进行牙槽嵴增高术存在HA颗粒在组织内任何手术创建的空间中扩散的倾向，这会影响手术效果。人们已经描述了几种旨在克服这一问题的技术，包括使用可充气组织扩张器。与该技术相关的一些残留问题可归因于扩张器设计和手术技术的某些方面。本文描述了一种在使用时完全被淹没的新型组织扩张器设计，并详细介绍了与之相关的手术技术。文中还讨论了初步结果。
