  • Title: An alternative approach for augmenting the anterior maxilla using autogenous free gingival bone graft for implant retained prosthesis.
    Author: Ribeiro CG, Bittencourt TC, Ferreira CF, Assis NM.
    Journal: J Oral Implantol; 2014 Apr; 40(2):183-7. PubMed ID: 24779951.
    Abstract:
    Numerous factors may keep surgeons from placing implants in the anterior maxilla in order to avoid suboptimal restorative outcomes. This paper describes a technique of an autogenous-free gingival-bone block graft, which allows bone and gingival augmentation and a primary seal to be achieved simultaneously. Additionally, it describes a technique for achieving primary soft tissue closure of maxillary extraction sockets using a rotated pedicle palatal connective tissue flap.
