  • Title: Implant installation with ridge augmentation using autogenous bone harvested from an adjacent site.
    Author: Park JB.
    Journal: J Oral Implantol; 2010; 36(5):409-13. PubMed ID: 20521910.
    Abstract:
    In general, autogenous bone is the most predictable material of choice for augmentation procedure. However, the autogenous bone graft procedure requires an additional surgical wound, and the amount of graft is limited because of the donor site. In this case, autogenous corticocancellous bone cores were harvested adjacent to the implant surgical site and the defect, which was distal to the implant surface, was treated with autogenous bone and deproteinized bovine bone. The implant-supported prosthesis was functioning well up to 6 months without any probing depth or gingival inflammation.
