Bone volume deficiency is commonly seen that can hamper the placement of prosthesis in that area. So, it becomes great necessity to reconstruct the ridge. This can be corrected by various arch reconstruction procedures. Successful reconstruction depends on multiple biological factors as well as patient compliance. In this case report, ridge reconstruction has been done with particulate bone graft, PRF and collagen membrane. This was followed by the surgical placement of implants.
