Endosseous implants have revolutionized the field of Implants and Prosthodontics. Implant placement is a viable option in the treatment of partial and full edentulism. However, placement of implants in alveolar deficiencies may lead to adverse angulations, mechanical overload and esthetic dissatisfaction. When minimum dimensions for implant placement are not present in alveolar process, it is necessary to augment the size of the ridge. This can be achieved by various methods and materials. Here in this article presented a successful case of a 27 year old male patient with horizontal ridge augmentation in anterior left central incisor region using autogenous chin graft followed by the placement of implants after a period of six months of grafting and finally the prosthesis given after a period of six months of healing of implants.
