Fig. 1From: CBCT analysis of crestal soft tissue thickness before implant placement and its relationship with cortical bone thicknessMeasurements evaluated on CBCT images a Crestal soft tissue thickness measured in red and cortical bone of alveolar crest measured in yellow. b 5Â mm apical to alveolar crest shown in orange. Lingual cortical plate (A) and buccal cortical plate (B) thickness measured in red. c 5Â mm apical to alveolar crest shown in orange. Alveolar ridge thickness measured in blue (including thickness of buccal and lingual cortical plates)Back to article page
