Abstract:
Excessive thickness and mobility of the skin flap and lack of a vestibular sulcus in composite vascularized bone grafts for mandibular reconstruction limit the usefulness of endosteal implants to support a prosthetic device. Palatal mucosal grafts and a simple acrylic stent are an excellent means to overcome these problems. The technique is presented in this paper.
