Maxillary antral and nasal one-stage inlay composite bone graft: preliminary report on 30 recipient sites

A one-stage antral and nasal inlay composite bone grafting procedure is described. Preliminary statistical data (1 to 6 years experience with the procedure) is presented for 30 recipient sites in 20 patients. A complete bone-supported fixed prosthesis was used and has provided continuous function in all patients to date. Implant survival has approached that of implants placed in uncompromised maxillary or mandibular bone.
