The mandibular ramus donor site

Abstract: With the increased awareness of the population about dental implants, more patients are presenting after losing a number of teeth and requesting fixed solutions to their dilemmas. Often they have lost width of alveolus which does not allow implant placement without its augmentation. The mandibular ramus is one intra-oral site that can supply excellent quality and often quantity of autologous bone for use in augmenting alveolar ridge deficiencies. This article describes the general surgical principles in harves… Show more

“…Therefore, a minimum thickness of 1.5 mm is advocated to provide additional protection and coverage of the augmented bone site. According to Tolman ( 27 ) and Brener ( 28 ) wound dehiscence was directly related to implant failure. Temporary mental paresthesia after harvesting chin grafts ranges from 10% to 50%, whereas the mandibular ramus ranges from 0% to 5% ( 29 , 30 ).…”

“…An autogenous bone graft is considered the best option because of its high boneinducing ability and low infection risk [7,8]. The autogenous bone graft is harvested from an adjacent or distant donor site within the same patient to reconstruct the deficiencies.…”

“…Guided bone regeneration (GBR) is a surgical procedure to restore bone defects or deficiencies in the oral and maxillofacial region, for example, to increase the height and width of the alveolar ridge (Buser, Brägger, Lang, & Nyman, ; Buser, Dula, Belser, Hirt, & Berthold, ; Chiapasco & Zaniboni, ; Dahlin, Andersson, & Linde, ; Dahlin, Sennerby, Lekholm, Linde, & Nyman, ; Jung, Fenner, Hämmerle, & Zitzmann, ; Simion, Jovanovic, Tinti, & Benfenati, ). In this context, successful results with GBR in combination with all types of graft materials, that is autografts, allografts, xenografts, and alloplasts, have been shown (Benic & Hämmerle, ; Brener, ; Esposito, Grusovin, Coulthard, & Worthington, ; Proussaefs, Lozada, Kleinman, Rohrer, & McMillan, ). Nevertheless, there are significant differences among the various grafting materials of the same type.…”
