Ridge mapping is a measurement procedure to ensure that the diameter of an endosseous screw implant does not exceed the dimensions of available bone. The long-term success of implants is a prime aim. To achieve this, it is essential for the initial evaluation of the dimensions of the resorbing alveolar process to be absolutely accurate. Ideally, an implant should be covered by at least 1 mm of bone on all sides. The major problem is estimating the thickness of bone, since the mucosal contour can mask the actual dimension of the alveolar ridge. Use of ridge mapping with the Wilson Bone Caliper makes possible a reliable evaluation procedure at the initial stage of treatment planning.
牙槽嵴测绘是一种测量程序，可确保骨内种植体的直径不超过可用骨的尺寸。种植体的长期成功是首要目标。要实现这一目标，对吸收性牙槽突尺寸的初始评估必须绝对准确。理想情况下，种植体应在各个侧面至少被1毫米厚的骨覆盖。主要问题在于估计骨的厚度，因为黏膜轮廓可能会掩盖牙槽嵴的实际尺寸。使用威尔逊骨卡尺进行牙槽嵴测绘，使得在治疗计划的初始阶段能够进行可靠的评估程序。
