Clin Implant Dent Relat Res 2024. [PMID: 39210711 DOI: 10.1111/cid.13382] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/25/2024] [Revised: 08/01/2024] [Accepted: 08/08/2024] [Indexed: 09/04/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The cortical shell technique is frequently associated with technical drawbacks, such as the lack of anatomical guidance during shell harvest and graft. This study aims to assess the horizontal bone gain and accuracy of a digitalized protocol that incorporates two interlocking patient-specific stackable guides (PSSGs) to control the shell harvest, positioning, and fixation. PATIENTS AND METHODS Twenty patients with deficient anterior mandibles were randomly allocated; 10 patients received freehand symphyseal shell harvest and fixation (the control group), whereas the other 10 received fully guided harvest and graft (study group) using (PSSGs), the first aided an accurate shell harvest, whereas the second conveyed shell fixation. The interposition gap among both groups was loaded with an equal mix of xenogeneic and autogenous particulates. The mean radiographic bone gain among both groups was calibrated 6 months postoperatively, and the accuracy of the digital plan was assessed by superimposing and comparing the virtually planned horizontal bone dimensions with the immediate postoperative actual bone dimensions. RESULTS The mean 6-month postoperative horizontal bone gain value of the study group was recorded as (4.97 ± 0.73) mm versus (4.45 ± 0.61) mm for the control group, with a statistically insignificant mean gain difference of (0.52) mm, (p = 0.101). The mean virtual preplanned horizontal bone gain was recorded (5.4 ± 0.6) versus (5.4 ± 0.6) for the immediate postoperative actual bone gain, which was also statistically insignificant (p = 0.9). CONCLUSION The (PSSGs) provided a precise method for graft harvest, position, and fixation, resulting in satisfactory alveolar ridge dimensions with intimate accuracy.

[PMID: 39129062 DOI: 10.1016/j.prosdent.2024.07.031] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/29/2024] [Revised: 07/16/2024] [Accepted: 07/17/2024] [Indexed: 08/13/2024]
Abstract
The traditional shell technique is a practical method for augmenting horizontal and vertical alveolar bone defects. However, it has drawbacks, including increased morbidity in the donor site and imprecise harvesting of bone grafts. Instead of using a second surgical site, root areas at the defect site could be the in situ donor site. A digitally designed bone harvest guide was used for an in situ bone augmentation workflow, and the modified shell technique was planned and executed in the root area. This technique offered a controllable procedure which might enhance bone augmentation.

Clin Oral Implants Res 2023; 34:1373-1384.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To radiographically evaluate the stability of the bone substitute augmented outside the buccal bony arch contour in the maxillary esthetic zone. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients who missed a single anterior tooth and received simultaneous GBR in implant surgery were included. The contralateral homonymous area of the implant site was horizontally mirrored as the individual bone arch contour. According to the relative position of the postoperative buccal grafts and bone arch contour at the implant shoulder, 62 patients were allocated into the outside-contour (OC) and inside-contour (IC) groups. Cone-beam computed tomography was performed before surgery, after implant insertion, before re-entry surgery, and at follow-up. The profilometric changes of the buccal bone plate were analyzed via the bone distance to the mirrored bony contour. RESULTS At the implant shoulder, the bone distance in the OC group was higher than that in the IC group, with statistically significant differences at re-entry surgery and follow-up. However, the bone grafts outside the bone arch contour were reduced into the contour after remodeling and showed more bone resorption than the IC group. At other vertical levels below the implant shoulder, bony grafting of overcontour 1-2 mm range was favorable to regenerate stable bone plates reaching the individual contour at follow-up. CONCLUSIONS The overaugmented bone outside the buccal bone arch contour tended to remodel into the original contour, which indicates that the anterior bone arch contour is worthy of careful observation for deciding buccolingual implant position and bone augmentation width.

Clin Implant Dent Relat Res 2022; 24:809-820. [PMID: 36068075 DOI: 10.1111/cid.13129] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/14/2022] [Revised: 07/25/2022] [Accepted: 08/13/2022] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To compare the outcome and efficiency of the computer-aided intraoral block bone grafting procedure with those of the conventional technique for the augmentation of horizontal ridge defects. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 28 patients with single missing tooth in esthetic zone with class IV horizontal alveolar bone defect in need of dental implant restoration were recruited. Computer-aided design of the implant restoration and intraoral block bone grafting was performed for all the participants. The patients were randomly and equally divided into guide and control groups. A fully guided bone harvesting, trimming, and grafting surgery was executed in the guide group. The control group patients underwent surgery without any guide. After 6 months, all the patients underwent implant placement. The primary outcomes were the root mean square estimate (RMSE) values between the outer contours of the actual implanted and planned bone block as well as the RMSE values between the inner surface of the implanted bone block and the original bone surface of the recipient site immediately after surgery. The secondary outcomes were the trimming time of bone block and the surgery-associated complications. The postoperative visual analog scale (VAS) of pain, swelling, and mouth opening difficulty was recorded. RESULTS All 28 patients underwent intraoral block bone grafting, followed by the placement of implant after 191.8 ± 19.69 days. The RMSE values between the outer contours of the implanted and planned bone blocks were significantly lower in the guide group (0.37 ± 0.16 mm) as compared to those in the control group (0.72 ± 0.29 mm) (p = 0.0007). The RMSE values between the inner contours of the graft block and original bone at the recipient site were lower in the guide group (0.35 ± 0.15 mm) as compared to those in the control group (0.48 ± 0.17 mm) (p = 0.043). The duration of bone block trimming was shorter in the guide group (401.51 ± 97.60 s) as compared to the control group (602.36 ± 160.57 s) (p = 0.0005). In the control group, two patients received secondary bone grafting, one patient experienced bleeding of donor site and temporary hypoesthesia of the lower lip and chin skin, and one patient developed temporary sensitivity of the adjacent tooth. CONCLUSIONS As compared to the conventional procedure, the fully digital workflow in the present study seemed to be a more accuracy and effective protocol for horizontal ridge augmentation with intraoral block bone.

Abstract
Background In terms of a highly atrophic maxilla, bone augmentation still remains very challenging. With the introduction of computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) for allogeneic bone blocks, a new method for the treatment of bone deficiencies was created. This case report demonstrates the successful use of two specially designed and CAD/CAM manufactured allogeneic bone blocks for a full arch reconstruction of a highly atrophic maxilla with an all-on-six concept. Case presentation We report the case of a 55-year-old male patient with a highly atrophic maxilla and severe bone volume deficiencies in horizontal and vertical lines. In order to treat the defects, the surgeon decided to use a combination of two allogeneic bone blocks and two sinus floor augmentations. The bone blocks were fabricated from the data of a cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) using CAD/CAM technology. After the insertion of the two bone blocks and a healing period of 7 months, six dental implants were placed in terms of an all-on-six concept. The loading of the implants took place after an additional healing time of 7 months with a screw-retained prosthetic construction and with a milled titanium framework with acrylic veneers. Conclusion The presented procedure shows the importance of the precise design of CAD/CAM manufactured allogeneic bone blocks for the successful treatment of a highly atrophic maxilla. Proper soft-tissue management is one of the key factors to apply this method successfully.

[PMID: 35583662 DOI: 10.1007/s00784-022-04547-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/23/2022] [Accepted: 05/08/2022] [Indexed: 02/08/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to introduce a digitally guided in situ autogenous onlay grafting technique and compare its effectiveness with the conventional (ex situ) onlay technique in augmenting horizontal bone defects of the anterior maxilla. MATERIALS AND METHODS This retrospective cohort study included 24 patients who had received autogenous onlay bone grafts combined with guided bone regeneration (GBR) in the anterior maxilla. Fourteen patients were recruited into the in situ onlay grafting group (EG), and 10 were recruited into the ex situ onlay group (CG), defined by the donor sites. The clinical parameters, radiographic changes, micro-CT, and histological processes were evaluated after a mean follow-up period of 1.7 years. RESULTS The horizontal bone width reflected significant bone modeling over time (p < 0.001) in the first 6 months. Multivariable analysis showed that the treatment modality (grouping) was a critical factor positively associated with vertical bone height alteration. However, neither the alteration rate of horizontal bone width nor the bone volume was associated with the treatment modality. The number of periosteal screws per graft positively affected horizontal contour maintenance (p < 0.05). No significant differences were observed between the groups in the clinical parameters (complications, success rate, and peri-implant parameters). The micro-CT and histological outcomes were similar between the groups. CONCLUSION Despite the limitations of this study, in situ onlay grafting combined with GBR was an effective and reliable approach for horizontal bone augmentation in the anterior maxilla and appeared to demonstrate better stability in vertical bone remodeling. CLINICAL RELEVANCE This study introduces a modified and minimally invasive technique of onlay grafting for horizontal bone augmentation. This in situ onlay grafting demonstrates superior stability in vertical bone remodeling. The trial registration number is ChiCTR2100054683.
