Abstract:
The article presents clinical case of a patient with partial secondary absence of teeth and maxillary defect because of vertical alveolar bone atrophy. Vertical alveolar ridge augmentation by osseous flap rotation and xenogenous bone block with 10% collagen was performed. Eight months later 4 dental implants with modified surface were placed in the augmentation area. After 3 months 3 implants showed no signs of osteointegration and were removed. Three week later the patient was admitted to ENT department because of maxillary sinusitis symptoms.

Compact Bone
Compact bone, also called cortical bone, is the denser, stronger of the two types of bone tissue. It is found under the periosteum and in the diaphyses of long bones, where it provides support and protection. The microscopic structural unit of compact bone is called an osteon, or haversian system. Each osteon is composed of concentric rings of calcified...
Bone Disorders
Bone deposition is also affected by the levels of sex hormones like estrogen and testosterone that promote osteoblast activity and bone matrix synthesis. When the level of these hormones decreases due to aging, it causes a reduction in bone deposition. As a result, bone resorption by osteoclasts...
The Hyoid Bone
Spongy Bone
Spongy bone is more porous, and less dense compared to compact bone. It is composed of concentric lamellae that are arranged irregularly to form the trabecular network. In some bones, the spaces between trabeculae contain red marrow, where...
