Summary

This study presents a bone grafting technique for the posterior maxilla, enabling simultaneous implant placement. This method significantly reduces treatment time, allowing patients to receive fixed prostheses within 6-12 months.

Area of Science:

  • Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
  • Dental Implantology
  • Regenerative Medicine

Background:

  • The posterior maxilla frequently exhibits insufficient alveolar bone for dental implant support.
  • This deficiency complicates the rehabilitation of patients with implant-supported prostheses.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe a surgical procedure for augmenting the maxillary alveolar ridge using a composite alloplastic bone graft.
  • To evaluate the feasibility of immediate implant placement during the grafting procedure.
  • To assess the long-term stability of implant prostheses placed in augmented bone.

Main Methods:

  • A composite alloplastic bone graft was utilized to augment the posterior maxillary ridge.
  • Dental implants were placed simultaneously with the bone grafting procedure.

  • The stability of the resulting implant-supported prostheses was monitored over time.

    • Main Results:

    • The described procedure successfully augmented the maxillary alveolar bone.
    • Immediate implant placement was achieved in conjunction with the bone graft.
    • Implant-supported prostheses placed in augmented sites remained stable for over five years in treated patients.

    Conclusions:

    • Composite alloplastic bone grafting is an effective method for maxillary ridge augmentation.
    • Simultaneous implant placement reduces overall treatment duration for patients.
    • This technique offers a predictable and stable solution for restoring the posterior maxilla with implant prostheses.
