Incorporation and Remodeling of Bone Block Allografts in the Maxillary Reconstruction: A Randomized Clinical Trial

Abstract: The findings of the present study indicate that there is a significant difference regarding the resorption of the grafts when waiting 4 or 6 months before placing the implants, even though no difference was found in the histological, histomorphometric, and immunohistochemical features. Both 4-month and 6-months healing times are suitable for the implant placement.

“…The biopsy analyzed in the current investigation showed 15.4% residual graft particles (RG). This finding is in agreement with a recent study of Deluiz et al [45], in which biopsies from ridges augmented with FFB blocks were retrieved four (24.3% RG) and six months (18.4% RG) after grafting. These data, even if they should be interpreted with caution, seem to indicate that the greatest part of graft remodeling and resorption takes place in the first period after the surgical procedure, likely as a consequence of the healing process.…”

“…A high incidence of soft tissue dehiscence and implant failures has been reported in patients receiving fresh frozen allogeneic bone grafts for reconstructing severe alveolar atrophies (36.8% incidence of dehiscence and 31.5% incidence of implant loss) [34] and 21% of implant loss [35], respectively. With the use of a different equine bone block, a previous publication reported total removal of the graft in 50% of the patients and in 20% of them the implants failed [36].…”

“…Reasons for excluding 15 studies after full-text assessment were: study could not be excluded before meticulous reading (n = 1) [42], unspecified augmentation procedure (n = 1) [43], unspecified number of implants inserted (n = 1) [44], barrier membrane saturated in platelet-rich plasma (n = 1) [45], immediate implant placement (n = 1) [46], outcome measures could not be identified for HARA in studies involving both horizontal and vertical alveolar ridge augmentation (n = 2) [47,48], observation period after functional loading of six months not fulfilled (n = 3) [49][50][51], or observation period not clearly specified (n = 4) [52][53][54][55][56].…”
