Risk Factors for Complications Following Staged Alveolar Ridge Augmentation and Dental Implantation: A Retrospective Evaluation of 151 Cases with Allogeneic and 70 Cases with Autogenous Bone Blocks. J Clin Med 2022; 12:jcm12010006. [PMID: 36614811 PMCID: PMC9820942 DOI: 10.3390/jcm12010006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/21/2022] [Accepted: 12/13/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Purpose: the aim of this study was to identify potential risk factors favoring complications by assessing the number and types of complications associated with allogeneic or autogenous bone blocks applied as onlay grafts for alveolar ridge augmentation prior to implantation. Methods: A retrospective chart review on the success of 151 allogeneic and 70 autogenous bone blocks in a cohort of 164 consecutive patients, who were treated over a period of 6 years by the same surgeon, was conducted. Statistical conclusions were based on ROC curves and multiple logistic regression models. Results: Complications were observed more frequently with autogenous bone blocks (14 out of 70 cases; 20%) compared to allogeneic bone blocks (12 out of 151 cases; 7.9%; p = 0.013). However, these complications were minor and did not impact the successful dental rehabilitation. In a multiple logistic regression model, the risk of a complication was increased by the use of an autogenous bone block (OR = 3.2; p = 0.027), smoking (OR = 4.8; p = 0.007), vertical augmentation above a threshold of 2.55 mm (OR = 5.0; p = 0.002), and over-contouring (OR = 15.3; p < 0.001). Conclusions: Overall, the complication rate of ridge augmentations carried out with autogenous or allogeneic bone blocks was low. Despite previous recommendations, over-contouring and a vertical augmentation above a threshold of 2.55 mm should be avoided.

Horizontal augmentation techniques in the mandible: a systematic review. Int J Implant Dent 2022; 8:23.

Abstract
Purpose Placement of dental implants has evolved to be an advantageous treatment option for rehabilitation of the fully or partially edentulous mandible. In case of extensive horizontal bone resorption, the bone volume needs to be augmented prior to or during implant placement in order to obtain dental rehabilitation and maximize implant survival and success. Methods Our aim was to systematically review the available data on lateral augmentation techniques in the horizontally compromised mandible considering all grafting protocols using xenogeneic, synthetic, or allogeneic material. A computerized and manual literature search was performed for clinical studies (published January 1995 to March 2021). Results Eight studies ultimately met the inclusion criteria comprising a total of 276 procedures of xenogeneic, allogeneic, or autogenous bone graft applications in horizontal ridge defects. Particulate materials as well as bone blocks were used as grafts with a mean follow-up of 26.0 months across all included studies. Outcome measures, approaches and materials varied from study to study. A gain of horizontal bone width of the mandible with a mean of 4.8 mm was observed in seven of eight studies. All but one study, reported low bone graft failure rates of 4.4% in average. Conclusions Only limited data are available on the impact of different horizontal augmentation strategies in the mandible. The results show outcomes for xenogeneic as well as autologous bone materials for horizontal ridge augmentation of the lower jaw. The use of allogeneic bone-block grafts in combination with resorbable barrier membranes must be re-evaluated. Randomized controlled clinical trials are largely missing.

Abstract
Objective The purpose of this case report was to present a method for the assessment of volumetric changes of bone blocks during healing and demonstrate its practicability by analysing the resorption of a pre-shaped allogeneic bone block used for the reconstruction of a complex maxillary defect. Materials and methods CBCT-scans of a 19-year-old male treated with an allogeneic bone block were recorded pre-OP, post-OP, and following six months of healing. Graft shrinkage was assessed via two image matching tools, namely coDiagnostiX® and Slicer. A biopsy specimen was harvested along the implant canal at the time of implantation. Results The osseous defect was successfully restored and advanced graft remodelling was found upon re-entry as confirmed by the histomorphometric and histologic analysis. The initial volumes of the graft determined via coDiagnostiX® and Slicer were 0.373 mL and 0.370 mL., respectively, while graft resorption after six months of healing was 0.011 mL (3.00%) and 0.016 mL (4.33%). Conclusions The avoidance of bone harvesting and reduction of invasiveness display an important issue in dentoalveolar restorations. However, before grafting materials can be considered a safe alternative, understanding their clinical performance, especially resorption stability, is pivotal. The present case report demonstrates a limited resorption of the allogeneic bone block and further emphasizes the practicability of determining bone resorption by the here introduced method. As our investigation comprises solely one subject, the results should be considered with care and substantiated by further studies.

Survival Rates of Dental Implants in Autogenous and Allogeneic Bone Blocks: A Systematic Review. MEDICINA (KAUNAS, LITHUANIA) 2021; 57:medicina57121388. [PMID: 34946333 PMCID: PMC8705565 DOI: 10.3390/medicina57121388] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/14/2021] [Revised: 11/11/2021] [Accepted: 12/14/2021] [Indexed: 12/17/2022]
Abstract
Background and Objectives: Preliminary studies emphasize the similar performance of autogenous bone blocks (AUBBs) and allogeneic bone blocks (ALBBs) in pre-implant surgery; however, most of these studies include limited subjects or hold a low level of evidence. The purpose of this review is to test the hypothesis of indifferent implant survival rates (ISRs) in AUBB and ALBB and determine the impact of various material-, surgery- and patient-related confounders and predictors. Materials and Methods: The national library of medicine (MEDLINE), Excerpta Medica database (EMBASE) and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL) were screened for studies reporting the ISRs of implants placed in AUBB and ALBB with ≥10 participants followed for ≥12 months from January 1995 to November 2021. The review was conducted in accordance with Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. The risk of bias was assessed via several scoring tools, dependent on the study design. Means of sub-entities were presented as violin plots. Results: An electronic data search resulted in the identification of 9233 articles, of which 100 were included in the quantitative analysis. No significant difference (p = 0.54) was found between the ISR of AUBB (96.23 ± 5.27%; range: 75% to 100%; 2195 subjects, 6861 implants) and that of ALBB (97.66 ± 2.68%; range: 90.1% to 100%; 1202 subjects, 3434 implants). The ISR in AUBB was increased in blocks from intraoral as compared to extraoral donor sites (p = 0.0003), partially edentulous as compared to totally edentulous (p = 0.0002), as well as in patients younger than 45 as compared to those older (p = 0.044), cortical as compared to cortico-cancellous blocks (p = 0.005) and in delayed implantations within three months as compared to immediate implantations (p = 0.018). The ISR of ALBB was significantly increased in processed as compared to fresh-frozen ALBB (p = 0.004), but also in horizontal as compared to vertical augmentations (p = 0.009). Conclusions: The present findings widely emphasize the feasibility of achieving similar ISRs with AUBB and ALBB applied for pre-implant bone grafting. ISRs were negatively affected in sub-entities linked to more extensive augmentation procedures such as bone donor site and dentition status. The inclusion and pooling of literature with a low level of evidence, the absence of randomized controlled clinical trials (RCTs) comparing AUBB and ALBB and the limited count of comparative studies with short follow-ups increases the risk of bias and complicates data interpretation. Consequently, further long-term comparative studies are needed.

Abstract
We report the histological evaluation of an individualized allogeneic bone block 5 years after alveolar ridge augmentation. The biopsy showed a well-vascularized lamellar bone with fatty incorporations without any avital allograft remnants. The presence of osteocytes, lining cells, macrophages, and blood vessels indicated a healthy and vital bone tissue.

Abstract
Objectives The objective of the present systematic review was to test the hypothesis of no difference in implant treatment outcome after horizontal ridge augmentation with allogeneic bone block compared with autogenous bone block. Material and Methods A MEDLINE (PubMed), Embase and Cochrane Library search in combination with a hand-search of relevant journals was conducted including human studies published in English through March 13, 2019. Comparative and non-comparative studies evaluating horizontal ridge augmentation with allogeneic bone block were included. Cochrane risk of bias tool and Newcastle-Ottawa Scale were used to evaluate risk of bias. Results One comparative study with high quality and 12 non-comparative studies fulfilled the inclusion criteria. Considerable heterogeneity prevented meta-analysis from being performed. The comparative retrospective short-term study demonstrated no significant difference in implant treatment outcome between the two treatment modalities. Non-comparative long-term studies revealed high implant survival, gain in alveolar ridge width and bone regeneration with allogeneic bone block. However, non-comparative studies disclosed high incidence of complications including dehiscence, exposure of allogeneic bone block and partial or total loss of the grafts. Conclusions There seemed to be no difference in implant treatment outcome after horizontal ridge augmentation with allogeneic bone block compared with autogenous bone block. However, increased risk of complications was frequently reported with allogeneic bone block.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This systematic literature review aimed to evaluate the efficacy of allogeneic bone blocks for ridge augmentation by assessing block survival rates and subsequent implant survival, including post-surgical complications and histomorphometric analysis. MATERIAL AND METHODS An electronic and manual search among references, was conducted up to April 2019 by two independent authors. Inclusion criteria were: human clinical trials in which the outcomes of allogeneic bone block grafts were evaluated by means of their survival rates and subsequent implant success rates. RESULTS Seven articles fulfilled the inclusion criteria and were analyzed. A total of 323 allogeneic block grafts were monitored for a minimum of 12 months follow-up after surgery, of which thirteen (4.02%) failed. Regarding the cumulative implant survival rate, the weighted mean was 97.36%, computed from 501 implants. Histologic and histomorphometric analysis showed that allogeneic block grafts presented some clinical and microstructural differences in comparison with autologous block grafts. CONCLUSIONS Atrophic alveolar crest reconstruction with allogeneic bone block grafts would appear a feasible alternative to autologous bone block grafts, obtaining a low block graft failure rate, similar implant survival rate and fewer postoperative complications. Further investigations generating long term data are needed to confirm these findings.

Bone Augmentation and Simultaneous Implant Placement with Allogenic Bone Rings and Analysis of Its Purification Success. MATERIALS 2019; 12:ma12081291.

Abstract
The main objective of this manuscript was to demonstrate the use of freeze-dried bone allografts (FDBA) by means of a technique of simultaneous bone augmentation and implant placement (“Bone Ring Technique”) in different indications, i.e., ridge reconstruction and sinus floor elevation procedure with a maxillary bone height of less than 4 mm. Moreover, cases with an up to 3-year follow-up were chosen to analyze the techniques of mid-term clinical success. Finally, the purification success of the FDBA was analyzed by means of established scanning electron microscopic (SEM) and histological methods. The FBDA bone ring was applied in three different patients and indications and presented; the healing success was analyzed on the basis of radiographical and clinical images. For analysis of the purification of the allogeneic bone, previously established histological methods and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were applied. All analyzed patient cases showed that the FDBA-based bone ring was fully integrated into newly built alveolar bone. Furthermore, the observations revealed that the three-dimensional bone reconstructions in maxilla and mandible were stable within the observational period of up to 3 years. Altogether, the present data show that the application of the Bone Ring Technique using the FDBA rings allows for successful regeneration of alveolar bone with a predictable clinical outcome, functionality and esthetics. Moreover, the material analyses showed that the allogeneic bone tissue was free of cells or cell remnants, while the (ultra-) structure of the bone matrix has been retained. Thus, the biological safety of the FDBA has been confirmed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to compare three-dimensional alterations following the use of autogenous versus allogeneic onlay grafts for augmentation at single tooth defects. MATERIALS AND METHODS Alveolar bone width at specific implant sites were assessed using sagittal and cross-sectional CBCT images prior grafting and at three subsequent time points. Twenty-one patients received autogenous bone blocks harvested from the retromolar region and another 21 patients received freeze-dried cancellous allogeneic bone blocks. RESULTS The vertical and horizontal dimensions did not significantly differ between autogenous and allogeneic bone grafts at any time point. In addition, there were no statistically significant differences in graft remodeling rates between autogenous (mean shrinkage rate after 12 months: 12.5% ± 7.8%) and allogeneic onlay grafts (mean shrinkage rate after 12 months: 14.4% ± 9.8%). CONCLUSIONS Freeze-dried cancellous allogeneic bone blocks showed equivalent volumetric shrinkage rates as autogenous bone blocks when used for treating circumscribed bone defects classified as Type-II to Type-IV according to the ITI-treatment guide categories. Therefore, it is not necessary to over-contour the alveolar ridge when using allogeneic blocks for treating single tooth defects, but to apply the same procedure as when using autogenous blocks.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The use of allogeneic bone grafts for alveolar ridge reconstruction has become an often-discussed alternative to augmentation procedures using autografts. Nevertheless, there still is a lack of literature concerning long-time experiences of allografts for alveolar ridge reconstruction. Especially the results of the use of allogeneic bone blocks for mandible reconstructions need to be further investigated. CLINICAL CONSIDERATIONS In this case report, we present the use of customized allogenic bone blocks in Guided Bone Regeneration (GBR) procedures for severely deficient mandibulary bones, the implantation after a healing period of 5 month and the 24-month follow-up data. CONCLUSIONS Customized allogeneic bone blocks seem to be a successful alternative to augmentations with autologous bone blocks reconstructing highly resorbed mandibulary alveolar ridges, showing highest volume stability and no signs of bone resorption after implant loading. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE The application of customized allogeneic bone blocks has shown to be a successful augmentation technique even compared with with autologous bone blocks reconstructing highly resorbed mandibulary alveolar ridges demonstrating no compromises regarding clinical outcome, functionality and esthetics.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Because processed allogenic bone blocks contain remnants of cells and other organic material, the present study examined the putative presence of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules in protein extracts derived from processed allogeneic bone blocks. STUDY DESIGN Protein content and the immunogenic potential of 3 different processed allografts (Osteograft, DIZG, Berlin, Germany; Caput femoris, DIZG, Berlin, Germany; Human Spongiosa, Charité Tissue Bank, Berlin, Germany) were assessed by protein extraction and analysis of the presence of MHC class 1 and 2 molecules prior to grafting. MHC concentration was measured by using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. RESULTS Protein content in the allograft materials varied between 0.87 and 1.61 µg protein/mg. In the allograft Human Spongiosa, no MHC was detected, whereas in the allogeneic bone blocks Osteograft and Caput femoris MHC 1 (0.04-0.037 ng/mg graft material) and in Osteograft MHC class 2 molecules were detectable. CONCLUSIONS The results of the present study suggest that despite thorough processing, a potential antigenicity of allografts is not eliminated. MHC molecules in allografts may sensitize the immune system.

Treatment of Severely Resorbed Maxilla Due to Peri-Implantitis by Guided Bone Regeneration Using a Customized Allogenic Bone Block: A Case Report. MATERIALS 2017; 10:ma10101213. [PMID: 29065477 PMCID: PMC5667019 DOI: 10.3390/ma10101213] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/04/2017] [Revised: 10/18/2017] [Accepted: 10/19/2017] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
The objective of this case report is to introduce a customized CAD/CAM freeze-dried bone allograft (FDBA) block for its use in Guided Bone Regeneration (GBR) procedures for severely deficient maxillary bones. Additionally, a special newly developed remote incision technique is presented to avoid wound dehiscence. The results show optimal integration behavior of the FDBA block after six months and the formation of new vital bone. Thus, the results of the present case report confirm the use of the customized CAD/CAM bone block for augmentation of complex defects in the maxillary aesthetic zone as a successful treatment concept.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this work was to compare histologically bone biopsies obtained during dental implant placement in atrophic jaws reconstructed with fresh-frozen bone (FFB) or autologous bone blocks. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twenty partially or totally edentulous patients were treated either with iliac crest FFB grafts (14 patients; group A) or with iliac crest autografts (6 patients; group B). Seven to 9 months later, dental implants were placed in the reconstructed jaws and bone biopsies were harvested. RESULTS The reconstructive procedure was uneventful in 9 patients of group A and in all patients of group B. Samples from both groups did not show relevant differences concerning the proportion of lamellar bone, newly formed bone, and bone marrow. In group A, the decreasing proportion of blood vessels from the apical to the coronal portion, the larger amount of lacunae in the apical portion, and the fewer vessels in the coronal portion than in group B evoke an effort of the host bone to "integrate" the graft from the apical portion. CONCLUSIONS FFB cannot be considered as successful and safe in alveolar bone reconstruction as autogenous bone grafting.

Abstract
Extraction, periodontitis, or trauma can cause a reduction on the alveolar ridge. This could result in an insufficient alveolar bone width and height. Different techniques of vertical bone augmentation are described in literature. However, nowadays there is not enough evidence against lateral augmentation procedures to verify if these techniques are stable over a long period of time.

Abstract
The aim of this study is to review and compare survival/success rate of dental implants inserted in autogenous and allogenic bone blocks (ALBs). A PubMed search was performed from January 1990 to June 2014 limited to English language and human studies. Studies that reported treatment outcome of implants inserted in augmented alveolar ridges with autogenous or ALBs were included. Primary search identified 470 studies. For autogenous bone block (ABB) 36 articles and for ALB 23 articles met the inclusion criteria. Evidence on implant survival/success rate of both techniques was limited to observational studies with relatively small sample sizes. Study design, treatment methods, follow-ups, defect location, and morphology varied among studies. The range of implant survival and success rates in ABB was from 73.8% to 100% and 72.8% to 100%, respectively. The corresponding numbers for ALB were 95.3-100% and 93.7-100%, respectively. A definite conclusion could not be reached. Future studies with long-term follow-ups are required to further elucidate this issue.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the efficacy of grafting materials in lateral and vertical ridge augmentations. MATERIALS AND METHODS A systematic review of the literature on the clinical use of grafting materials of the years 1995 to April 2015 was conducted using electronic search of PubMed and Cochrane libraries and hand search of eight print journals. A total of 184 papers were included, comprising 6182 patients. Parameters evaluated were observation period [months], bone formation [histologic area%], defect fill [%], horizontal and vertical gain [mm], loss of augmented volume [mm], complication rate [%], and implant survival rate [%]. Results are expressed as weighted means ± SD. RESULTS Results were obtained after a weighted mean observation period of 27.4 months (range 3-168 months). Bone formation in the augmented areas varied from 33.2 ± 14.9% for allogeneic grafts to 56.0 ± 25.6% for mixtures of autogenous and other grafting materials. Defect fill in dehiscence defects ranged from 51.0 ± 13.6% (synthetic) to 85.8 ± 13.4% (xenogeneic) for the different materials, with an overall weighted mean of 79.8 ± 18.7%. Weighted mean horizontal gain for all particulate grafting materials was 3.7 ± 1.2 mm, with variation between 2.2 ± 1.2 mm (synthetic) and 4.5 ± 1.0 mm (mixtures of autogenous bone with allogeneic/xenogeneic grafting material) without statistical significance. Weighted overall mean vertical gain was 3.7 ± 1.4 mm. Vertical gain was substantially higher when space-making barrier materials such as titanium meshes were used; however this was also associated with strong increase in complication rate. Block grafts achieved higher horizontal gain by approximately 1 mm. The use of block grafts achieved significantly increased vertical gain compared to particulate material only when autogenous block grafts from extraoral donor sites were used. CONCLUSION Horizontal and vertical gain by 3.7 mm on average can be achieved using particulate materials. This can be increased by using titanium meshes. Substantial vertical gains beyond this dimension require the use of extraoral bone block grafts.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The loss of teeth, whether it is from trauma or pathology, is accompanied by a concomitant loss of the surrounding alveolar bone. Khoury introduced a new method for grafting ridge defects in 2007. This technique involved using thin cortical plates harvested from the ramus, and in a 'sandwich' type manner, interposed these bone plates with cancellous bone harvested from the same site. Although this has shown success, the technique suffers from similar disadvantages of most harvesting techniques, i.e. a need for a second surgical site, and donor site morbidity. In this case presentation, we report the use of an allograft bone plate in a similar manner as was previously described by Khoury, to reconstruction lost alveolar bone in order to facilitate the correct three dimensional (3D) placement of dental implants. CASE DESCRIPTION A 53-year-old female presented for the restoration of her missing dentition in her upper jaw. The cone bean computed tomography (CBCT) revealed a large horizontal bony defect in the region of the upper anterior teeth, with minimal remaining bone. Using bone fixation screws, the bone plates were fixed to the buccal defect and the space between the plate and the existing palatal bone wall was then filled using a combination of autograft bone scrapings and xenograft bone particles. Six months after the initial surgery, the grafted sites were surgically re-entered and showed a marked increase in ridge width. CONCLUSION Evidence exists for the use of bone allografts for a variety of alveolar bone augmentation procedures. The case presented outlines another use for this versatile biomaterial. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE Bone harvesting for large alveolar defects is invariably associated with increased morbidity and an increased risk of postoperative complications. The above technique described by the author, may be used as a suitable alternative to reconstruct these defects, without harvesting bone from a second surgical site.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Fresh-frozen bone allograft (FFBA) is an alternative to autogenous bone (AB) for reconstructing maxillary bone. Despite the promising clinical results, cell responses to FFBA and AB were not evaluated. Thus, our aim was to compare cells harvested from maxillary reconstructed sites with either AB or FFBA in terms of osteoblast differentiation and to evaluate the effect of culturing cells in contact with FFBA. METHODS Cells harvested from three patients submitted to bilateral maxillary reconstruction with AB and FFBA were cultured to evaluate: proliferation, alkaline phosphatase activity, extracellular matrix mineralization and gene expression of osteoblastic markers. The effect of FFBA on osteoblast differentiation was studied by culturing cells harvested from AB in contact with FFBA and evaluating the same parameters. Data were compared using either two-way ANOVA followed by Tukey-b test or Student's t test (p≤0.05). RESULTS Cell proliferation was higher in cultures from AB grafted sites and extracellular matrix mineralization was higher in cultures derived from FFBA grafted sites. The gene expression of alkaline phosphatase, RUNX2, bone sialoprotein and osteocalcin was higher in cells derived from FFBA compared with cells from AB grafted sites. However, the exposure of cells derived from AB to FFBA particles did not have any remarkable effect on osteoblast differentiation. CONCLUSIONS These results indicate the higher osteogenic activity of cells derived from FFBA compared with AB reconstructed sites, offering an explanation at cellular level of why FFBA could be a suitable alternative to AB for reconstructing maxillary bone defects.

Abstract
Background Reliable implant-supported rehabilitation of an alveolar ridge needs sufficient volume of bone. In order to achieve a prosthetic-driven positioning, bone graft techniques may be required. Purpose This prospective cohort study aims to clinically evaluate the amount of resorption of corticocancellous fresh-frozen allografts bone blocks used in the reconstruction of the severe atrophic maxilla. Materials and Methods Twenty-two partial and totally edentulous patients underwent bone augmentation procedures with fresh-frozen allogenous blocks from the iliac crest under local anesthesia. Implants were inserted into the grafted sites after a healing period of 5 months. Final fixed prosthesis was delivered ± 4 months later. Ridge width analysis and measurements were performed with a caliper before and after grafting and at implant insertion. Bone biopsies were performed in 16 patients. Results A total of 98 onlay block allografts were used in 22 patients with an initial mean alveolar ridge width of 3.41 ± 1.36 mm. Early exposure of blocks was observed in four situations and one of these completely resorbed. Mean horizontal bone gain was 3.63 ± 1.28 mm (p < .01). Mean buccal bone resorption between allograph placement and the reopening stage was 0.49 ± 0.54 mm, meaning approximately 7.1% (95% confidence interval: [5.6%, 8.6%]) of total ridge width loss during the integration period. One hundred thirty dental implants were placed with good primary stability (≥ 30 Ncm). Four implants presented early failure before the prosthetic delivery (96.7% implant survival). All patients were successfully rehabilitated. Histomorphometric analysis revealed 20.9 ± 5.8% of vital bone in close contact to the remaining grafted bone. A positive strong correlation (adjusted R2 = 0.44, p = .003) was found between healing time and vital bone percentage. Conclusions Augmentation procedures performed using fresh-frozen allografts from the iliac crest are a suitable alternative in the reconstruction of the atrophic maxilla with low resorption rate at 5 months, allowing proper stability of dental implants followed by fixed prosthetic rehabilitation.

Abstract
Purpose. This systematic review was aimed at assessing the feasibility by means of survival rate, histologic analysis, and causes of failure of allogeneic block grafts for augmenting the atrophic maxilla. Material and Methods. A literature search was conducted by one reviewer in several databases. Articles were included in this systematic review if they were human clinical trials in which outcomes of allogeneic bone block grafts were studied by means of survival rate. In addition other factors were extracted in order to assess their influence upon graft failure. Results. Fifteen articles fulfilled the inclusion criteria and subsequently were analyzed in this systematic review. A total of 361 block grafts could be followed 4 to 9 months after the surgery, of which 9 (2.4%) failed within 1 month to 2 months after the surgery. Additionally, a weighed mean 4.79 mm (95% CI: 4.51–5.08) horizontal bone gain was computed from 119 grafted sites in 5 studies. Regarding implant cumulative survival rate, the weighed mean was 96.9% (95% CI: 92.8–98.7%), computed from 228 implants over a mean follow-up period of 23.9 months. Histologic analysis showed that allogeneic block grafts behave differently in the early stages of healing when compared to autogenous block grafts. Conclusion. Atrophied maxillary reconstruction with allogeneic bone block grafts represents a reliable option as shown by low block graft failure rate, minimal resorption, and high implant survival rate.

Abstract
PURPOSE Slow-resorbing deproteinized bovine bone grafts have presented high success rates when used for sinus augmentation. However, histologic evaluation shows that this material is eventually excreted as a result of a foreign body reaction. The purpose of this study was to compare and to evaluate the performance of a recently introduced particulate porous graft material, consisting of pure titanium granule (PTG) to the deproteinized bovine bone grafts, when used as a sinus augmentation material. MATERIALS AND METHODS To understand the histological aspects of PTG, deproteinized bovine particulates (Bio-Oss) and PTG were placed contralaterally as sinus grafting materials in 2 patients. After 9 months, biopsies were performed for histologic and 3-dimensional analysis. RESULTS Both materials were in contact with newly formed bone. The Bio-Oss showed signs of foreign body reaction. In contrast, bone filled the space between the single PTG particulates, and no foreign body reaction was observed. CONCLUSIONS From a bone formation perspective, PTG grafts were comparable with the commonly used Bio-Oss grafts and may be regarded as a possible alternative for permanent grafting in sinus augmentation.
