The MIS crest widener is used to widen a narrow alveolar crest which has sufficient height for implantation. By separating the cortical plates new bone is created in between, the plates, and the gingiva is extracted simultaneously.

With this technique, bone augmentation is avoided, the implant is placed in the correct lateral position and sufficient attached gingiva is obtained. In addition, the
widener can be used to allow easy distal or mesial orthodontic movements of the molars.

Advantages:
1. Mucosal distraction leads to sufficient attached gingiva and soft tissue cover (Distraction Histiogenesis).
2.The transported bone is not stripped from periostium, therefore - no post-operative bone resorption.
3. Simple, short, minimal traumatic procedure.
4. No pain or morbidity at donor site.
5. Less technique-sensitive.
6. Implant placement is possible after extremely short post-operative period (5-8 weeks).
7. The procedure is easily performed in a dental office.
8. Minimally compromised aesthetics.
9. Encourages ideal lateral implant placement when needed.
10. Facilitates easy orthodontic movements
