  • Title: Preprosthetic augmentation grafting--autogenous bone.
    Author: Baker RD, Connole PW.
    Journal: J Oral Surg; 1977 Jul; 35(7):541-51. PubMed ID: 327034.
    Abstract:
    Alveolar bone graft augmentation has returned successful prosthetic denture function to patients with deficient alveolar ridges who were beyond the scope of treatment by preprosthetic soft tissue surgical procedures alone. The results of a 30.7-month mean postoperative follow-up of 15 patients with panoramic radiographs were recorded. Emphasis was placed on evaluation by functional improvement rather than on radiographic interpretation. Ideal results were not obtained in all instances; however, in the majority of cases, the patient benefitted by improved prosthetic function.
