Success rates and complications of autologous onlay bone grafts and sinus lifts in patients with congenital hypodontia and after trauma
British Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Sep 01, 2017
Breeze J, et al. – The study aimed to determine the success rates and complications of autologous onlay bone grafts and sinus lifts in patients with congenital hypodontia and after trauma. Findings revealed that ramus grafts are a predictable method of bone augmentation with only transient morbidity at the donor site. Higher failure rates for extraoral grafts probably reflect their use in more challenging cases when more bone is needed. The outcomes suggested that bilateral ramus grafts are an alternative to extraoral grafts and might be supplemented by bovine–derived particulate grafts with no appreciable increase in complications.
