Objective And Aim: Challenging defect configurations and dimensions arise from severe, localized vertical alveolar ridge defects caused by trauma or prior surgery. This study aims to analyze three-dimensional bone gain, assess marginal bone stability in such defect configurations, and evaluate the impact of grafting outside the bone contour on the overall outcome, with a focus on iliac crest block grafts as a valid treatment option.

Materials And Methods: The prospective cohort study evaluated patients who required vertical block grafting due to localized bone defects in the maxilla or mandible and who had received iliac grafts.

Introduction: Prosthodontic rehabilitation after reconstruction with microvascular revascularized free flaps following ablative tumor surgery is challenging due to the altered anatomical and functional conditions. The aim of this retrospective study was to determine whether the type of graft and the type of peri-implant tissue have an effect on peri-implant inflammatory parameters and implant survival.

Materials And Methods: Patients who received a free flap reconstruction with subsequent implant-prosthetic rehabilitation between 2010 and 2022 were retrospectively included.

Objective: To evaluate radiographic bone gain after alveolar ridge augmentation with two different designs of autogenous block graft harvested from the mandible.

Materials And Methods: Alveolar ridge defects were evaluated by preoperative cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) and grafted in a staged approach using intraoral block grafts. The ridge augmentation was either performed using the full-block technique (group 1) or the split-block technique (cortical plate with autogenous bone chips) (group 2).
